In this week 19 match, on Sat Jan 21st, Meppen hosts Freiburg II at Hänsch-arena in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched 3. Liga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, and temperatures reaching a maximum of only 0 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. In their last match, Meppen recorded a 1-1 draw against Dynamo Dresden. Stefan Kutschke struck first for Dynamo Dresden in the 71st minute, then Marek Janssen tied it up for Meppen in the 1st minute of the second half’s stoppage time on a feed from Markus Ballmert earning them at least the one point. Meppen looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10, while in their last match, 4th placed Freiburg II, recorded a 1-1 draw against Verl. Vinko Sapina struck first for Verl in the 70th minute on a penalty, then Maximilian Breunig tied it up for Freiburg II in the 5th minute of the second half’s stoppage time on a penalty earning them at least the one point. Freiburg II is looking for direction having 4 win and 2 losses in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Freiburg II won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Freiburg II is having problems scoring lately. Their top scorers, Mika Baur and Kehl each only have 1 goal in their last 5. Morgan Faßbender and Ole Käuper are the top scorers for Meppen in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
