Loyal fans at Hänsch-Arena haven’t witnessed many victories this season, with Meppen languishing in the 20th position. The opposing Erzgebirge Aue will attempt to shield their higher league position in this match.

Insights:
  • Meppen is in the worst form (0-2-4)
  • Erzgebirge Aue have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

The visiting Erzgebirge Aue played their last game only three days ago, a Reg. Cup Sachsen match. That game, against Chemnitzer FC, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Erzgebirge Aue.

Meppen form and stats

Meppen's results here at Hänsch-Arena in the 3. Liga have been very modest with 3 victories, 3 draws and 8 defeats. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Meppen, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

In their previous game, the manager Krämer led his Meppen to a defeat away at Viktoria Köln. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Hänsch-Arena.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Verl (1-3).

Sports bettors should know that 10 of the latest 11 league games from this football club have had at least one goal from each side.

Meppen are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 14 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Meppen defense is not exactly impregnable. 26 goals conceded from 14 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
