FC Gießen form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Oberliga: Hessen travels is 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

There might be some fixture complaints from FC Gießen as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 0-1 against SV Steinbach. That loss was their first after four consecutive league fixtures winning points.

That result followed a home victory 4-1 versus Hanau 93.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with FC Gießen playing away and similar expectations, we found 6 relevant matches. Results were 1 FC Gießen win, 4 draws and 1 defeat.

The attacking power of Gießen when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away. FC Gießen's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 8 goals from these trips.
