Verl
- Verl are 15th on 12 points from 11 games in the 3. Liga 2026/2027, while Wehen are 9th with 15 points.
- Verl have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five games, but come into this match on the back of back-to-back losses.
- Orest Shala has been in charge of the hosts since 1 July 2026 and his side, which presses high and likes to dominate the ball, have been solid but not brilliant at home in 2026/2027 with two wins, a draw and two defeats.
Wehen
- Wehen have won two, drawn two and lost one of their five away matches in the 3. Liga 2026/2027.
- Wehen are in better shape with three wins, one draw and one defeat in their previous five.
- Jochen Seitz took over Wehen on 23 September 2026 and the team have been more compact, more disciplined and better in transition ever since.
- A good test of how much the team has improved since that takeover date will be if they can resist the high pressing of Verl.
Head-to-Head
- Although Wehen won the most recent H2H match 2-1 at home in the 3. Liga 2025/2026, the last five meetings have produced two ties.
- Verl have failed to win their last two home games against Wehen.
- But we are picking Wehen this weekend as even though they are coming off a 0-0 away draw with Jahn Regensburg, they have won three of their last five.
Key Players
-
Goalscorers to watch:
- Tim Heike is the best man for goals in the Verler team, with four to his name in seven 3. Liga 2026/2027 appearances.
- Moritz Flotho is the Wehen top scorer with two in seven.
-
Team attacking/defensive context:
- Verl score an average of 1.80 goals per home match in the 3. Liga 2026/2027, having scored nine in total.
- And Wehen have only conceded seven in five away games, so this should be a competitive match.
Betting Insights
- SV Wehen Wiesbaden are the narrow favorites at 2.22, with Verl at 2.8 and the draw at 3.8.
- Both Teams to Score: Yes at 1.45 also looks a value play, especially as the Over 2.5 goals option is shorter at 1.55.
- The odds suggest the visitors hold a slight edge but that goals from both sides are likely.
Prediction
- Backing Wehen to win and Both Teams to Score looks like the way to go at 2.22 because the away side can win it while leaving enough of a gap for Verl to get on the board.
- A good chess match looks likely because, while Verl will be on the front foot, Wehen are happy to sit in a solid shape and counterattack.
- Jochen Seitz's impact since 23 September 2026 and Wehen's recent away form tilt the argument toward the visitors, while Verl's inconsistent home displays make a narrow away win with goals at both ends the most convincing outcome.
