Saarbrücken perform at a high level so far being 1st in the table. Dynamo Dresden can look both up and down from their 7th position.
The hosts Saarbrücken saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the 3. Liga. That game was an away game at MSV Duisburg, so at least Saarbrücken are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Saarbrücken form and stats
Saarbrücken, who have the the best goal difference (+7) in 3. Liga, have played 4 3. Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-0-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Saarbrücken enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at MSV Duisburg's place. The match ended 3-2 with M. Šverko, T. Jänicke and N. Shipnoski scoring. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Uerdingen.
A late climax in the match against MSV Duisburg as the winning goal came four minutes into overtime; scored by T. Jänicke.
This is expected to be a close game, with Saarbrücken perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.
