Crucial shoot-out in the bottom section of the Regionalliga: West, with both Wiedenbrück and Düren Merzenich feeling more concern than joy. This match is a typical "six-pointer" with the hosts placed 16th and the visiting team in 13th position.
- Wiedenbrück have won significantly less corners at home than away.
- Düren Merzenich have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
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.

Merzenich have much to to correct after their surprise defeat (1-2) to Wattenscheid 09 in their previous game, played at home. Late heartbreak for Düren Merzenich in the Wattenscheid 09 match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Rot Weiss Ahlen at their stadium, the result 2-1.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Düren Merzenich manager Brunetto as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Borussia Freialdenhoven.
The Düren Merzenich manager Brunetto has some worries about the defense as 19 goals have been conceded in these travels.
