Magdeburg form and stats

When playing at home in the 3. Liga, Magdeburg, who have the fewest scored goals (13) in 3. Liga, have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 7 games. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The home team returns to MDCC-Arena after being equal after 90 minutes with VfB Lubeck (placed 17th) on their last time out; the 3. Liga game ended 1-1. In the match before that, Magdeburg hosted Meppen and drew the game 0-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Magdeburg perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Magdeburg as a small favourite), we find nine games. Magdeburg has won one of these, drawn six and lost two.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the 3. Liga game versus Saarbrücken in only three days. This game is also played here at MDCC-Arena.

Uerdingen form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the fewest conceded goals (4) away in 3. Liga, on their 3. Liga travels is 3 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats.

Uerdingen might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Kaiserslautern proved too strong as Uerdingen slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Grotenburg-Stadion. Preceding that game was the away victory against Viktoria Köln with the score of 2-0.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Uerdingen in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Uerdingen, one draw and seven defeats.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Uerdingen's manager S. Krämer has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 4 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
