Zwickau form and stats

Zwickau have collected 17 points from their 3. Liga home games so far after 5-2-8. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at GGZ Arena.

Zwickau drew their last game, 2-2 away at Kaiserslautern (placed 18th). Heartbreak before that as Zwickau lost 0-1 at Waldhof Mannheim's place.
