Zwickau form and stats
Zwickau's struggle is real here at SGL Arena with only 4 points collected from 8 3. Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-6. With seven home 3. Liga games in a row without a win, the Zwickau fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Unterhaching game long ago, can be stopped today.
Zwickau's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Hansa Rostock (placed 5th). In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Meppen.
