Venue: Hänsch-Arena (16500 seats)

Important clash in the bottom part of the 3. Liga, with both Meppen and Ingolstadt feeling more stress than bliss. This fixture is a typical "six-pointer" with the hosting team at 20th and the visitors in 14th position.

Insights:
  • Meppen have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Ingolstadt is in the worst form (0-0-6)

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

L W L L D

Meppen form and stats

Meppen's struggle is real here at Hänsch-Arena with only 15 points collected from 15 3. Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-3-8.

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

Before that, Meppen had a home game versus Erzgebirge Aue which ended with a victory 3-2.

Take note: 11 of the most recent 13 league games from this football club have had goals from both teams.

Meppen are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 15 games. Meppen have conceded 28 from these games.

Ingolstadt form and stats

6-2-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Ingolstadt in their 3. Liga matches away. With the Ingolstadt losing streak of six defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

Ingolstadt failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs 1860 München (placed 8th) that ended with defeat 1-3.

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Zwickau's place.

Sports betting statistic: Both sides have scored goal(s) in 8 of this club's latest 10 league games.

The schedule is very tough for Ingolstadt now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Reg. Cup Bayern game at ATSV Erlangen is waiting in only three days.

The travelling fans enjoy Ingolstadt's attacking play in away games, having scored 25 goals in 15 league matches away. In the opposite end, Ingolstadt have conceded 24 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Ingolstadt - Meppen 3-1 was the end result in these participants' previous h2h fixture, earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the preceeding five meetings): Meppen won one game, two matches ended in a draw and Ingolstadt got two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / four.
