Energie Cottbus - FSV Frankfurt

This is an important match for both teams because both are out of form and they did not very well in the past. Maybe the national break was to the right time and they can get some energy back. Also they had to do a lot of work to get back on track and play better as before. Results are needed for both, above all Cottbus is on the bottom of the table and 3 Points away from FSV at the moment. So it will be very interesting to see what team has used the break better for preparing to this important match. Below I want to give some key facts to this encounter.


- Energie Cottbus is still unbeaten against FSV Frankfurt at home. They are 2-2-0 so far.
- But overall they could not win one of the last three. FSV won 1-0 at home and the other two matches ends with a draw.
- Energie is winless since 5 matches and they lost the last 3.
- Also FSV is winless since 4 matches, and they lost also the 3 of the 4 games !!!
- Energie Coach Schmidt is still unbeaten against FSV as with his former team Paderborn he could win 3-0 at home and played 1-1 in Frankfurt.
- FSV Coach Möhlmann is unbeaten since 7 against Energie Cottbus.
- FSV keeper Klandt played all 8 matches against Cottbus, but he will miss his first time now.
- The only win for FSV was in Dresden and from the recent 4 road matches they got only 1 Point.
- Energie is still waiting for the first win on the road, they got only 3 Points therefore it is very important to win at home.
- Many times stands the 0 for Cottbus, they are the team with the most goalless matches (8).
- Cottbus was not able to score a single goal since 5 matches !!!
- On the other side FSV could not score in the past 3 !!!

After new Coach Schmidt arrived many hope that the turnaround comes immediately but it was a bit different as the team looks not such stable as they need or maybe the self confidence was not high too. Therefore they lost to St. Pauli easy 0-3 but after this match he had two weeks to get his team back on track and they trained a lot. Maybe this break help them back on track because it is needed to get results if they want to leave the bottom of the table. At St. Pauli they had some problems in defensive with a lot of defenders unavailable but they are back. A doubt is only behind Buljat. But more important is that Banovic can move back to his preferred position and must not play again as central back. He is very important in midfield for the team and this can be a key factor here to get the offensive running again. The players are there with Stiepermann, Sanogo, Jendrisek.

On the other side FSV is on the same way as Cottbus. They started well was on a good way again this season but stopped in the last matches. The losing streak put them down and also some injury problems helped not much. For this encounter Coach Möhlmann has to think about his starting lineup as with Heubach, Leckie, Rukavytsya and keeper Klandt he has already 4 players out while Oumari, Konrad and Kapllani are 3 doubtful. Despite the bad run and many players not available they look forward and believe that they bring a good team on the pitch who can get the win here. Although the self confidence is low, they try all to bring the team back on track here.

As I said it already, an important match for both side. Cottbus at home with good results while FSV on the road were harmless. Although both are in crisis and were not able to score much in the past I am very confident that the goalless time from both teams ends here. I expect some goals here despite all problems.
