There's been little loot from Homberg's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 13 away games in the Regionalliga: West. Homberg only have 2 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws.

Homberg aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 199 league minutes without a goal. Opfermann was the last player to find the net.

Homberg might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Rödinghausen proved too strong as Homberg slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at PCC-Stadion.

A 0-2 loss hosting Wuppertaler SV before that.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 13 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Homberg manager Acar has some worries about the defense as 27 goals have been conceded in these travels. Homberg has visited these top teams four times, and 4 of 4 has ended with 2 goals or more!
