It's the second try for points this campaign as Waldhof Mannheim and VfB Lübeck lock horns at Carl-Benz-Stadion.
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!
Waldhof Mannheim form and stats
In the previous season, Waldhof Mannheim's league stats were 19 wins, 3 draws and 16 losses, results that produced 7th position in the 3. Liga. In these 38 matches they scored {63 goals} and let in 65. Performing as the host team in the former season Waldhof Mannheim managed 15-1-3 (win-draw-lost) with {37 goals} and 21 conceded.
Waldhof Mannheim are returning here after guesting VfB Eppingen in a Reg. Cup Baden fixture and winning with a 4-0 scoreline.
Before that, a strong away win at Lauda. A Reg. Cup Baden match. The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Mannheim matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat (from 5 games).
The manager Rehm will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Dynamo Dresden in only three days.
VfB Lübeck form and stats
Let's have a look at how VfB Lübeck performed last season in the Regionalliga: Nord: They landed a 1st position in the league table after playing out 23 victories, 7 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 74 and conceded {29 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 10 - drew 4 and lost 4 with 36/14 goals scored/conceded.
This game can not go any worse than the previous one, a DFB Pokal home defeat versus Hoffenheim with 1-4 on the scoreboard.
A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Sandhausen in the 3. Liga.The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The 3. Liga trip to 1860 München.
