Struggling Speldorf will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying FC Bocholt in the upcoming league round. It’s 17th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Oberliga: Niederrhein. That game was an away game at TuRU 1880 Düsseldorf, so at least Speldorf are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting FC Bocholt have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 7-2-2 (win-draw-loss) from eleven matches.
