MSV Duisburg are eager to get the points at home in the upcoming game hosting Zwickau.

Insights:
  • MSV Duisburg have the most conceded goals in the second half (32) in 3. Liga

Zwickau could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a 3. Liga game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Viktoria Berlin, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Zwickau.
