Magdeburg vs Meppen Prediction & Betting tips
The 14th matchday of the 3rd division starts with a real basement duel on Friday evening, when Meppen is at the bottom of the current table-18. guest. Nevertheless, both teams are going into this game with a tailwind. The Emslanders celebrated a 2-0 home win over FC Ingolstadt on Monday evening. The hosts from Saxony-Anhalt meanwhile won 1-0 away in Zwickau on Saturday.
Now it is time for both teams to step up. In the run-up to the encounter between Magdeburg and Meppen, the odds of the bookmakers in the direction of the hosts, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows.
After 1. FC Magdeburg had an absolute false start with only four out of 24 possible points, Thomas Hoßmang’s men finally stabilized again. Only one of the last five competitive games was lost. Accordingly, the relegation places could now be left with a three. Against Meppen of all places, FCM have not only been without a win in three home games so far, but also goalless.
Even today we suspect that there are only a few goals in this basement duel between two more defensive teams. A lot of value is therefore in Magdeburg against Meppen in the tip that a maximum of one team meets.
Magdeburg:
1. FC Magdeburg was able to keep one or the other service provider when relegated from the 2nd Bundesliga. The direct resurgence was never an issue in the past season.
In the end, the three-time GDR champions only landed 14th in the final table and promptly experienced the next upheaval on the transfer market in the summer. Other top performers went and preparations began with Thomas Hoßmang, who had previously been an interim coach.
The team that once won the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1974 found themselves in the new season extremely difficult. Only four points were taken from the first eight league games before the coach was on the verge of being out after a 2-5 package in Mannheim.
But then the men from Saxony-Anhalt caught up again and finally experienced a clear upward trend. Of the last five league games, only the away game in Ingolstadt was lost. With two wins and two draws, the blue-whites climbed to 18th place and are already tied with the first non-relegation place.
In three home games still winless and goalless against SV Meppen
At the “Big Point” in Zwickau, where Andreas Müller marked the golden goal for the 1-0 away win, the next three in the next basement duel is now to take place. The bookmakers trust the FCM with this liberation.
But it should not be excluded that the men from Saxony-Anhalt have never won three home games against Meppen and have never scored a home goal against the Emsländer in two goalless draws and a 2-0 defeat. This also favors the bet that a maximum of one team will score today.
Meppen:
SV Meppen has been an integral part of the 3rd division for four years. However, the Emslanders have not yet had anything to do with relegation. Most recently, long-time coach Christian Neidhardt led the Emsländer to a solid seventh place in the final table of the 2019/20 season.
But then the coach, who had taken over Meppen in the 2013/14 season in the Regionalliga Nord and led him back to professional football, turned his back on the club. Torsten Frings took over, but found himself very difficult on the Lower Saxony bank.
Five of the first six league games were all lost before the SVM got at least halfway. In the last four games in the 3rd division there were two more defeats, but at least two more wins.
In total, this results in a score of 9 out of 30 possible points. Because the Emslanders have three games less than the competition in the first half of November due to a long quarantine, that currently means the red lantern for the Frings team.
The SVM only managed to break free on Monday evening when, of all places, the candidate for promotion Ingolstadt could be defeated 2-0 at home.
Now, however, you finally have to refuel from a distance. The Emslanders lost their last four league games away from home and scored just two goals.
In general, the attack is the big shortcoming of the bottom group, which is the worst offensive in the third division with only eleven league players. In view of these numbers, it makes all the more sense to play the tip at Magdeburg against Meppen that a maximum of one team can score in this basement duel.
