📊 Form Guide

Darmstadt

WDWDLL ⚖

Darmstadt will be hoping to return to winning ways here after the 2-1 Bundesliga 2 loss in their previous game against Kaiserslautern.

In that match, Darmstadt managed 53% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 4 on target. The scorer for Darmstadt was Luca Marseiler (3'). At the other end, Kaiserslautern got 17 attempts at goal with 6 on target. Marlon Ritter (15') and Ragnar Ache (45') scored for Kaiserslautern.

It’s not been often in recent games where Darmstadt have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Darmstadt have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 9 goals along the way. Let’s find out if that trend will end up being sustained here.

Regensburg

LWLDDD

In the game prior to this, Regensburg drew 2-2 in the Bundesliga 2 match with Karlsruhe.

In that match, Regensburg managed 42% possession and 20 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. For Regensburg, goals were scored by Rasim Bulić (17') and Eric Hottmann (65'). For their opponents, Karlsruher had 19 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Marvin Wanitzek (4') and Dženis Burnić (31') scored for Karlsruhe.

The numbers tell their own story, and Regensburg have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 13 goals in all. Defensively, Regensburg have been far from perfect.

Coming into this meeting, Regensburg are without a win away from home in their last 19 matches in the league. What a horror away run it has been.

🗞️ Team News: Darmstadt

Fabian Holland (Cruciate ligament tear), Christoph Zimmermann (Knee problems), Othmane El Idrissi (Inflammation in the knee), Matthias Bader (Cruciate ligament tear), Paul Will (Cruciate ligament tear) and Guille Bueno (Muscle injury) will be missing for Darmstadt manager Florian Kohfeldt.

It’s our opinion that Darmstadt will possibly line up in a 4-4-2 system this time with Marcel Schuhen, Sergio López, Clemens Riedel, Aleksandar Vukotic, Fabian Nürnberger, Luca Marseiler, Kai Klefisch, Andreas Müller, Killian Corredor, Isac Lidberg and Fraser Hornby.

📰 Team News: Regensburg

Regensburg boss Andreas Patz has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Benedikt Saller (Inflammation of pubic bone), Andreas Geipl (surgery), Robin Ziegele (muscular problems), Oscar Schönfelder (Fitness), Louis Breunig (Adductor tear), Max Meyer (Torn muscle fiber) and Kai Pröger (Internal ligament tear) miss out here.

We are inclined to think that Regensburg could decide to elect for a 3-5-2 lineup using Julian Pollersbeck, Leopold Wurm, Florian Ballas, Rasim Bulic, Frederic Ananou, Sebastian Ernst, C. Kühlwetter, Bryan Hein, Tim Handwerker, Noah Ganaus and Eric Hottmann.

🧠 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Regensburg will likely be able to score against this Darmstadt outfit, however that might not be as many as they will have scored against them.

We think that it’s going to be a 2-1 winning score for Darmstadt at the end of the match. It should be a decent one.
