With Verl having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager Capretti.

Würzburger Kickers form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Würzburger Kickers so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 2-4-4 (win-draw-lose). Würzburger Kickers has drawn their two previous away games.

The supporters enjoyed Würzburger's previous game versus Aalen, a Club Friendlies 3 4-0 win played at home. As mentioned above, Würzburger was the only team on the pitch versus Aalen in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.

The game before that, in the 3. Liga, was lost at home, a 0-3 defeat against 1860 München.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Würzburger Kickers as they have only managed to score 7 times from 10 away games in the league. Würzburger have conceded 10 goals in these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
