FC Ingolstadt 04
- FC Ingolstadt 04 have won 5, tied 5 and lost 7 of their 17 home matches in the 3.Liga (W5, D5, L7), scoring 23 goals.
- Sabrina Wittmann has been in charge of FC Ingolstadt 04, and she has introduced a system that prioritises a compact structure, flexible formations and a measured tempo, with an emphasis on overloading the half-spaces and controlling the game’s rhythm through the ball.
- Ingolstadt have won just 1 of their last 5 games, with 4 defeats in that time.
- They are at home here, however, where they have lost each of their last 2 matches.
FC Erzgebirge Aue
- FC Erzgebirge Aue have lost 11, tied 5, and won only 1 of their 17 away games in the 3.Liga (W1, D5, L11), conceding nearly 2 goals per away game.
- Khvicha Shubitidze took the reins at FC Erzgebirge Aue in April, and since then they have been an altogether more defensive team.
- They have drawn their last 3 consecutive games after losing 2 of the previous 5.
Head-to-Head
There have been 1 win for Ingolstadt , 2 wins for Aue and 2 draws in the last 5 head-to-head encounters between these teams.
Key Players
- Marcel Baer is Aue’s main attacking focus, with the frontman scoring 8 goals in 19 appearances.
- Marcel Costly is Ingolstadt’s star player up front, who has scored 15 goals in 35 league games.
Prediction
- Aue are the weaker side here, and they have failed to win in their last two away trips to Ingolstadt.
- Ingolstadt should have more than enough to break Aue down in their approach, but I expect Aue to make the game competitive and play their part in an end-to-end game that could see both teams score, but with the hosts taking the win.
