Viktoria Köln hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 21 points and a 16th position in the 3. Liga table. Visiting Hansa Rostock holds 13th place with 25 pts.
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!
Viktoria Köln form and stats
Viktoria Köln's results here at Sportpark Höhenberg in the 3. Liga have been very modest with 2 victories, 4 draws and 4 defeats. All in all it has been a very rough period for Viktoria Köln who hasn’t won a game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against Preuen Munster, 97 days ago. The Viktoria Köln manager P. Dotchev might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
The Viktoria Köln crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Uerdingen here at Sportpark Höhenberg in a 3. Liga match. Heartbreak before that as Viktoria Köln lost 1-3 at Wurzburger Kickers's place.
Viktoria Köln has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 10 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 16 goals have been conceded.
Hansa Rostock form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Hansa Rostock so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-5 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Hansa Rostock are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 3. Liga home defeat versus Chemnitzer FC with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Hansa Rostock manager J. Härtel faced defeat when travelling to Uerdingen and losing 1-4.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Hansa Rostock as they have only managed to score 8 times from 9 away games in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Hansa Rostock have conceded 15 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
