Erzgebirge Aue
WLLWLW
Erzgebirge Aue, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following a 1-0 3rd Liga success against Ingolstadt.
The only scorer from Erzgebirge Aue was Ali Loune (38').
It’s been all too rare in recent times that Erzgebirge Aue have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The reality is that Erzgebirge Aue have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, giving up 13 goals on the way.
Coming into this clash, Erzgebirge Aue are undefeated in their last 3 home league matches.
SV Sandhausen
LLLLLL 🚑
Since a losing effort in their last game against Hansa Rostock in 3rd Liga action, SV Sandhausen and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
Adrien Lebeau (52'), Tim Krohn (61') and Jan Mejdr (87') scored for Hansa Rostock.
The forward players for SV Sandhausen have struggled for goals over their previous 6 clashes, netting the poor return of only 3. In those matches, Sandhausen have also seen the collective goal tally of their opponents equal 14. Such a trend isn’t assured to be sustained into this next game, however.
Ahead of this clash, SV Sandhausen haven’t won away from home in the past 15 matches in the league. What a horror away run it has been.
