Zwickau form and stats

All-inclusive 3. Liga results at home this season for Zwickau are 5-3-8 (wins-draws-losses).

No payout for Zwickau in their previous match, an away game at Osnabruck that ended in defeat 3-4. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? The defeat against Osnabruck was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored five minutes into stoppage time (by Simakala).

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Freiburg II.

There will be little rest for Zwickau after this match as they are travelling to Lokomotive Leipzig for a Reg. Cup Sachsen game in only three days.

The Zwickau fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 16 matches. On the other hand, Zwickau have conceded 21 goals.
