SV Wehen Wiesbaden
- SV Wehen Wiesbaden are the in-form team here, winning back-to-back games and 2 of their last 5 (W2, D1, L2).
- Wiesbaden come into this with back-to-back wins to their name after a 2-1 home win over FC Bayern Munich in a friendly.
- In fact, Daniel Scherning's side have won two, drawn two and lost six of their last ten across all competitions, suggesting that they are a shaky outfit.
SC Preussen Munster
- SC Preussen Munster are winless in their last 5 (D2, L3), while they are winless in their last 10 games in all competitions (D4, L6).
- Munster, on the other hand, are on a dire run of form and have yet to win a competitive game in this campaign.
- Their latest outings saw them draw 1-1 at home to Darmstadt and then lose 3-0 away at Elversberg, a result which means that they have now failed to win their last five (D2, L3).
- Thomas Woerle's men are still bedding into a more possession-based approach with structured pressing in the middle of the field, but it is taking some time.
- While they should have more of a ball in this clash than in previous games, they are still likely to be caught in the counter, and that could be their undoing here.
Key Players
Tarik Gozusirin has been a livewire for the home side with three goals in their last 5, and with Shin Yamada their only notable threat up front with three of their six goals in the same period, it could be an interesting encounter.
