Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Magdeburg in 8th and Wurzburger Kickers in 9th place.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Magdeburg form and stats

1 victory, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Magdeburg have to build on here at MDCC-Arena in the 3. Liga. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Magdeburg.

Magdeburg drew their last game, 1-1 away at Kaiserslautern (placed 15th). Before that, Magdeburg drew at home versus MSV Duisburg.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Magdeburg have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won 3 times, drawn 1 and lost 2.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (9 in 4 games), Magdeburg's attacking play is working. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Magdeburg defense is not exactly impregnable. 7 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
