SV Wehen Wiesbaden
- Two teams on opposite ends of the 3. Liga 2026/2027 table will face off in Wiesbaden on Sunday, with the Zebras on 12 points from five games and Wehen on just two.
- Daniel Scherning has his Wehen team set up in a compact 3-4-2-1 with structure at the back and an ability to press selectively or sit back in a block and make quick vertical bursts.
- Moritz Flotho is the spark for the team, but with just one goal in five 3. Liga 2026/2027 games they need more bite in the final third.
-
Wehen's form has been poor and they have failed to capitalize on their chances in their latest three fixtures:
- Drew 0-0 at home to Rot-Weiss Essen.
- Drew 1-1 away at Hansa Rostock.
- Lost 0-1 at home to Waldhof Mannheim.
MSV Duisburg
- MSV Duisburg (the Zebras) sit on 12 points from five games.
- Dietmar Hirsch has his Duisburg team set up in a direct 4-2-3-1 with athletic transitions and a high-energy mentality.
- Jan-Simon Symalla has been delivering excellent passes to feed Lex-Tyger Lobinger, who is the top scorer with four goals in four league games and has three of Duisburg's last ten.
- Duisburg have been in good form with three wins and two losses in their last five across current competitions, including a 3-0 home win over Würzburger Kickers and a 2-1 away victory at Jahn Regensburg.
- Duisburg have won two and lost one of their three away games in 3. Liga 2026/2027.
Head-to-Head

- Wehen recorded a 6-1 win over Duisburg seven months ago in the 3. Liga 2025/2026.

- Jan-Simon Symalla - Creator for Duisburg, supplying key passes.
- Lex-Tyger Lobinger - Duisburg's top scorer with four goals in four league games.
Betting Insights
- MSV Duisburg are the 2.2 favourites to win, with SV Wehen Wiesbaden at 2.85 and the draw at 3.6.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.6 and Both Teams To Score at 1.5 look appealing for an open game.
- Recent form and the H2H suggest goals are possible and the match could be end-to-end.
Prediction
- Duisburg are favoured but Wehen will be tough at home given the even head-to-head over the last year.
- The 2.2 favourite looks a tad high for Duisburg, so the pick is to back the visitors to make it three wins from five away games this season.
