Eilenburg form and stats

Eilenburg have only played one Oberliga: Nordost-Süd game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat from 9 matches.

A nice win for Eilenburg last time playing, versus Plauen. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-0. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at VfL Halle.

As mentioned above, Eilenburg "killed" Plauen in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Eilenburg have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won four times, drawn zero and lost zero.

Early season league goal statistics from Eilenburg's 1 home game: 4 goals, 0 conceded.

Plauen form and stats

Things could have gone better for Plauen in their Oberliga: Nordost-Süd away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

Two away games in a row for Plauen, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-4 versus Eilenburg in the Oberliga: Nordost-Süd. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Krieschow.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Eilenburg was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Plauen are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, two draws and two defeats. From a total of eight matches.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Plauen has managed 3 goals and let in 4 from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Eilenburg - Plauen 4-0. Eilenburg-Plauen H2H statistics last seven meetings regardless of arena: Eilenburg four wins, Plauen three wins, zero draws. five of these seven matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
