Darmstadt 98, Recent FormAny Darmstadt 98 pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 3-1 away defeat by Arminia Bielefeld. They came away from that fixture with 56% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Arminia Bielefeld managed 17 attempts on goal, with 8 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 6 goals and some valuable points in the process. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 19 games in a row. Torsten Lieberknecht will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home matches.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 14 games in a row.
On an individual basis, Mathias Honsak will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Darmstadt 98's last 6 league games.
Kaiserslautern, Recent FormKaiserslautern manager Dirk Schuster will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Sandhausen. They achieved 57% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Sandhausen's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Schuster will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Their defensive record does not make good reading so far this season as they have conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 24 league games.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Philipp Klement has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Darmstadt 98.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 3-3 draw.
