Does Haching also celebrate in Verl?
Eight points from four games, with a 2-1 win, promoted SpVgg Unterhaching pushed Viktoria Köln from the top of the table in the 3rd division. Under the new coach Marc Unterberger, the Munich suburbs also threw FC Augsburg out of the DFB Cup – and scored seven points in the English week. The reward for the strong start to the season is second place. On Saturday (2 p.m.) the game association can continue its success story at SC Verl (18./3).
Kicking off the game day: entertainment meets minimalism
Before that, on Friday evening (7 p.m.), 1. FC Saarbrücken (9th/5th) and the second team from Borussia Dortmund (12th/5th) will open the fifth matchday. Both teams have a balanced record so far (one win, two draws and one defeat). While Saarbrücken provided entertainment after an average of two goals and two goals conceded per game, Dortmund are the minimalists in the league: With a goal difference of 1:2, BVB together with Sandhausen have the best defense in the league, but also the most harmless attack .
Will Dresden defend first place?
Up until now, leaders Dynamo Dresden (9), who played without central defender Kevin Ehlers (knee injury) against FC Ingolstadt (13th/4) on Saturday afternoon (2:00 p.m.), have been convincing in attack. With a win, the Saxons can defend their top position.
On the other side of the table, the clubs from Münster (16th) and Mannheim (15th), who are currently just over the line with four points each, meet. Despite Mannheim’s small liberation against Halle last week, central defender Julian Riedel clearly stated the problems: “Two goals conceded per game are far too many.”
In addition to the square townsfolk, bottom light SC Freiburg II (2 points) is also hoping for a stable defense. With Rot-Weiss Essen (11./5), the Revierklub stabilized recently and is unbeaten for four competitive games, but a high hurdle awaits the Breisgauer.
Newcomers’ meeting in Ulm – traditional duel on Giesing’s heights
The promotion duel between the well-started newcomers SSV Ulm 1846 (10th/5th) and VfB Lübeck (7th/6th) concludes early Saturday afternoon. The guests from the Hanseatic city want to get back to sports after the training license issue surrounding head coach Lukas Pfeiffer.
Two and a half hours later, Dresden’s pursuer and local rival Erzgebirge Aue (3rd/8) is in action at TSV 1860 Munich (6th/6). The reason for the successful start to the season, Seitz sees in the work of the violets during the summer break: “We did a good job in preparation and it pays off game after game.” Also on Giesing’s heights?
Relegated on Sunday in action – Duisburg liberation?
Sunday (1.30 p.m.) opens with an aspirant for promotion: SV Sandhausen (4th/7) is a guest at Hallesches FC (17th/4) – coach Danny Galm would now like to get the first three abroad after the convincing performances at home in Hardtwald . In the case of the team from Halle, who are already shaken, another professional, Marvin Ajani, will be out for a long time after his injury in training.
MSV Duisburg (19th/3rd) hopes for the first win of the season from 4.30 p.m. at second division relegated Jahn Regensburg (8th/6th). After the clear words of coach Torsten Ziegner, will the zebras achieve their first victory with the Upper Palatinate?
The third second division team that was relegated is also in action on Sunday and concludes the game day in the evening (7.30 p.m.): At Viktoria Cologne (5th/7) Arminia Bielefeld (14th/4) wants to break free from the lower region of the table with a win. A tough nut awaits with the Höhenbergers, which should be cracked with the help of three other newcomers (Wörl, Putaro and Sarenren Bazee).
