SV Wehen Wiesbaden
- SV Wehen Wiesbaden (0 points from 2 games) are 20th in the 3. Liga 2026/2027 table, 6 places below SC Rot-Weiss Essen (3 points from 2).
- Wiesbaden and Essen are both on poor runs, though Daniel Scherning's men are in the worse shape going into their home game on Saturday, as they are on a 3-game losing streak.
- Wiesbaden are winless after 1 home game in the 3. Liga 2026/2027 and have conceded 3 goals in that period, which indicates the club have an early defensive wobble.
SC Rot-Weiss Essen
- Essen's form is mixed-to-poor with 1 win and 4 defeats from their last 5 games, but they did get the better of TSV Havelse last time out with a 1-0 victory at home.
- Essen are also winless after 1 away game and have scored 2 away goals, so they will arrive with some bite on the counter-attack.
Head-to-Head
- The head-to-head record edges this contest towards an away win in our view, as Essen are undefeated in their last 3 meetings with Wiesbaden (W2, D1).
- Their most recent meeting in the 3. Liga 2025/2026 ended in a 1-1 draw at Essen, and Wiesbaden have failed to collect a win in either of their previous 2 meetings with die Bergeborbecker at home.
Key Players
Moritz Flotho is the in-form goal scorer for Scherning's team with 1 goal in 2 league games, while Semir Telalovic is the danger man for Koschinat's side with 2 goals in 2 league appearances.
Betting Insights
- Die Bergeborbecker will be favourites to win this weekend's match-up, but the short odds of 2.4 don't quite sit right with us.
- Wiesbaden's 2.55 odds also have a ring of dissonance about them, so the draw at 3.8 makes the most appeal in this match-up of inconsistent teams.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.5 and Both Teams To Score at 1.42 both hint at an open contest, but BTTS - Yes looking the cleaner angle.
Prediction
Essen's favouritism and their head-to-head advantage with Wiesbaden should be enough for them to edge this one or at least deny Scherning's Wiesbaden a win, so our correct score prediction is for a tight 1-1 draw.
