Pirmasens form and stats

Disaster struck Pirmasens last season as they could not defend their status as a Regionalliga: Südwest team. With 21 defeats from 36 games, and only 9 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Pirmasens are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W3 D4 L11.

The manager Stotz will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Pfeddersheim in only four days.

It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Pirmasens, who have participated in two training matches. Pirmasens have won 1 of these, drawn 1 and were beaten in 0 games.

FC Bitburg form and stats

Last season was a triumph for FC Bitburg in the national league as they took home the Oberliga: Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar trophy. The championship was secured after 26 wins, 4 draws and only 4 defeats. As this is an away game, it's natural to look at the stats for away matches last season: Won 13, drew 2 and lost 2.

A new game in only four days for Bitburg, the Oberliga: Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar home match versus Auersmacher. Busy days.
