The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Waldhof Mannheim are in the 9th position while the guesting Zwickau worry at 16th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Mannheim can neither be promoted or relegated from 3. Liga. Zwickau are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.
Waldhof Mannheim form and stats
The story so far in the 3. Liga for Waldhof Mannheim at their home stadium (Carl-Benz-Stadion) is 5 wins, 8 draws and 5 defeats.
No payout for Waldhof Mannheim in their previous match, an away game at Eintracht Braunschweig that ended in defeat 2-3. Before that, Waldhof Mannheim drew at home versus Preußen Münster.
The Mannheim fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 25 in 18 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Waldhof Mannheim defense is not exactly impregnable. 27 goals conceded from 18 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Zwickau form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Zwickau so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 3-5-10 (win-draw-lose). Bitter travels for Zwickau as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Kaiserslautern match.
Zwickau had fun at their own home (Carl-Benz-Stadion) last time out, beating Chemnitzer FC 2-1. E. Huth and M. Könnecke scored. Prior to that match, a home win 3-2 against Eintracht Braunschweig.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Enochs when M. Könnecke scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 61st minute.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Zwickau have scored 18 goals in 18 league games away. Zwickau's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 32 goals from these trips.
