Wehen Wiesbaden form and stats

2 victories, 4 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Wehen Wiesbaden have to build on here at BRITA-Arena in the 3. Liga.

Wiesbaden's previous game was a 3. Liga match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Hallescher FC (placed 14th). The home side are looking to build on that result.

1-1 away at Waldhof Mannheim before that.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Wiesbaden matches with similar probabilities have ended with zero wins, two draws and zero defeats (from two games).

The Wiesbaden fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 14 goals have been conceded.

Freiburg II form and stats

Freiburg II have only collected 8 points from their away games in the 3. Liga, after 2-2-5 (9 played).

Two away games in a row for Freiburg II, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Saarbrücken in the 3. Liga.

Before that, Freiburg secured a home win against MSV Duisburg with the score 1-0.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Freiburg playing away, we found six games. Results were one away win, one draw and four home wins.

Goals are few and far between in Freiburg's away league games. Only 3 goals from 9 travels. Freiburg struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 16 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

The fixture history shows this score when the sides met earlier this campaign; Freiburg II - Wehen Wiesbaden 0-0.
