Saarbrucken

- Siemen Voet leads the club's scoring charts with four goals in seven 3. Liga 2026/2027 appearances.
- The Blau-Schwarz have plenty of end product, but they will also face a Havelse side that have scored six goals in their last five matches thanks largely to Kwasi Okyere Wriedt, who has three to his name.
-
Havelse

Betting Insights
- The visitors look priced as the favorite at 1.45 for Sunday's fixture.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.4 looks a good play on the match as a whole.
- Both Teams to Score at 1.55 also looks a decent option given the differing styles of the two sides and the fact that Havelse will be desperate for a result.
- TSV Havelse have shipped 12 goals at home in the 3. Liga 2026-2027 (average 2.40) and that is a red flag against a better side with more cutting edge.
Prediction
We're still going with the obvious play of an away win for 1. FC Saarbrucken , but we can't ignore the fact that Saarbrucken may have to force a way through Havelse 's home block to create the goals they need to win by a couple of goals.
