Meppen form and stats

The story so far in the 3. Liga for Meppen at their home stadium (Hänsch-Arena) is 6 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats. Game days at Hänsch-Arena have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Meppen as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

In their previous game, the manager C. Neidhardt led his Meppen to a defeat in the 3. Liga match away at Bayern München II. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Hänsch-Arena. Ahead of that match, Meppen lost 2-3 at home to Hallescher FC.

Meppen were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

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 Meppen have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won four times, drawn two and lost four.

There will be little rest for Meppen after this match as they are travelling to Sonnenhof Großaspach for a 3. Liga game in only three days.

A decent goal production from Meppen in their home games so far, with 28 goals from 16 league matches. Meppen have conceded 27 from these games.
