The league table in Regionalliga: Nord tells a story about these teams so far, with Werder Bremen II leading HSC Hannover by 20 points. Match preview to follow:
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting HSC Hannover have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-9-18 (win-draw-loss) from 35 matches.
Werder Bremen II form and stats
Werder Bremen II have played 10 Regionalliga: Nord games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-3-2 (wins-draws-losses). The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Weserstadion Platz 11.
In their previous game, the manager K. Fünfstück led his Werder Bremen II to a defeat in the Regionalliga: Nord match away at Wolfsburg II. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Weserstadion Platz 11. Ahead of that match, Werder Bremen II won a home game hosting Holstein Kiel II (3-1).
As you see from the result above, Werder Bremen II suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (20 in 10 games), Werder Bremen II's attacking play is working. Werder Bremen II have conceded 13 in these home matches.
HSC Hannover form and stats
HSC Hannover have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Regionalliga: Nord, after 0-5-6 (11 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved HSC Hannover have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone eleven consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Hagen / Uthlede game.
Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. HSC Hannover goalkeeper is eager to challenge this, with his 225 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.
HSC Hannover delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Schwarz-Wei Rehden (placed 7th) in their previous match; a Regionalliga: Nord game. Before that, HSC Hannover secured a home win against Hamburger SV II with the score 2-0.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting HSC Hannover as they have only managed to score 8 times from 11 away games in the league. The opposition has been scoring high and low on HSC Hannover's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 28 goals in 11 travels.
