Würzburger Kickers form and stats

Würzburger Kickers's first 3. Liga home game here at flyeralarm-Arena ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 3 wins, 6 draws and 8 defeats from 17 matches. With seven home 3. Liga games in a row without a win, the Würzburger fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Hamburger SV game long ago, can be stopped today.

Würzburger shared the glory with Waldhof Mannheim in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1.

Before that game, the home loss against Freiburg with the scoreline 0-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Würzburger Kickers have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won two, drawn one and lost two.

Würzburger are traveling soon after this match as the 3. Liga match at Freiburg II awaits in three days.

Early season league goal statistics from Würzburger Kickers's 1 home game: 0 goals, 1 conceded.

Osnabrück form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the 3. Liga, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 6 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from 17 matches.

Osnabrück are looking to quickly end their 227 minutes long goal drought in the 3. Liga.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 3. Liga home defeat versus MSV Duisburg with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

A loss against Wehen Wiesbaden was the result prior to that, in a home game.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Osnabrück playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were four Osnabrück wins, three draws and four defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Osnabrück are hosting Borussia Dortmund II in the 3. Liga only three days away.

Osnabrück have the goal stats of 2-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last eight meetings: two - two - four (Würzburger wins - draws - Osnabrück wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
