Viktoria Koln vs Zwickau Prediction & Betting tips
Is there any reason to cheer for Pavel Dotchev at his anniversary? The coach of Viktoria Köln, known to be the record coach in League 3, is on the sidelines for the 50th time in the Rhineland and wants to see his team win at home against FSV Zwickau. Although there are ten places between the two clubs in the table, the results have been very similar recently. From the last five games, both teams have each won one win, one draw and three defeats.
The form and the self-confidence could be better, which is why the best bookmakers have chosen the starting position very balanced.
Viktoria Cologne:
Only four points from the last five games – that’s not exactly the record of a top team. Nevertheless, Viktoria Köln ranks 5th in the table of League 3, which is due to four wins in a row. Pavel Dotchev’s protégés want to build on this strong form from October soon. The lack of self-confidence is clearly noticeable after the last results.
In the last home game against Saarbrücken, the team weakened itself when goalkeeper Mielitz was sent off and at the weekend Unterhaching played a 2-0 lead. The coach is encouraged by the return of his captain Mike Wunderlich, who was able to register as a goal scorer in Upper Bavaria. Striker Albert Bunjaku and Marcel Risse will also be there on Wednesday evening.
The individual quality, especially on the offensive, is great and apart from Sebastian Mielitz, who is still banned, only Alexander Höck is missing due to injury. With Jeremias Lorch and Fabian Holthaus, who were replaced at the weekend due to minor injuries, there is still a question mark behind a mission. With a broad squad, however, it shouldn’t be a problem to replace one or the other player.
The Cologne team will send a competitive team onto the pitch in their home sports park, with whom they hope that a prognosis for the home win between Viktoria Köln and Zwickau will be successful. With a threesome, the jump on a promotion place would be possible.
Zwickau:
All those responsible at FSV Zwickau want to avoid a trembling game like last season. At that time the club could only save itself with a final spurt in the league and everything should get better this season. The current 15th place, however, again indicates a year in the lower third of the table. The shape does not necessarily mean that quick improvement can be expected.
At the weekend, coach Joe Enochs’ team was able to stop the series of three consecutive defeats. Against Waldhof Mannheim it was 0-0 after 90 minutes. While it was positive that the defense was finally stable again and did not make any major mistakes, there was a lack of offensively creativity on the other hand. With the two attackers Maximilian Wolfram and Ronny König, the guests will count on Wednesday and try to surprise the more offensive opponent.
With Marcus Godinho and Marius Hauptmann two important players are missing because of injuries. Nevertheless, the Saxons want to continue their slight upward trend in the English week and gain self-confidence before the derby against FC Magdeburg on Saturday. With the English week and the catch-up game in Verl, the storks have a mammoth program ahead of them in the next few weeks until Christmas.
The course is set for the rest of the season. If a tip on the odds of the guests is successful between Viktoria Köln and Zwickau, they point in the right direction and the FSV would avoid slipping to the relegation ranks.
