After eight competitive games SV Wehen Wiesbaden still waiting for the first victory of the season. The pressure on coach Rüdiger Rehm is getting bigger. But still holds the club to the coach. Meanwhile, the gap to the first non-relegation zone is already five points. On matchday 8, the duel against co-starter Osnabrück is on. Will the SVWW finally manage the first threesome on Friday evening in the Brita Arena?
The third division champion of the preseason is much better arrived in the 2nd Bundesliga. With three wins and a draw, VfL currently occupies a good eighth place. The last two guest appearances lost the Purple-Whites but 0-1. Above all, the bankruptcy in the Erzgebirge on Matchday 6 was disappointing.
We believe that at Wiesbaden against the favorite opponent Osnabrück can finally burst the knot, and set in the duel Wiesbaden vs. Osnabrück our tip on a threesome of the home side.
Wiesbaden:
It was to be feared that SV Wehen Wiesbaden would be facing a difficult year this season. But the yield of only one point after seven matchdays is already extremely sobering. The Südhessen were already a few times just before the first victory.
But in Bochum the SVWW did not even manage a 3: 0 lead for more than one point on Matchday 4, for example. In Fürth and against Arminia led the promoted each with 1: 0 and conceded at the end nor a defeat.
The team simply makes too many individual mistakes. Thus, the team of coach Rüdiger Rehm conceded in the last two home games against Regensburg and Bielefeld five goals. The question of whether the squad is really a second-rate match is getting louder and louder. Players can not compensate for their lack of experience so far.
Of course, the coach is also more and more in the focus of criticism. The 2: 5 on the final day against Bielefeld was a new low for the club. Also, the coach knew that you will have no chances in the second league. The dueling behavior must urgently be improved. Also the individual mistakes must be turned off. 23 goals are by far the worst defense in the league.
Coach Rehm has to do without many players on Friday. Defense tower Röcker missing red-locked. In addition, wax, Ajani, Schönfeld, Schwadorf, Swede, Vogel and Tietz are all due to injury not operational. These numerous failures make before the duel Wiesbaden vs.. Osnabrück a forecast on the home side a bit harder.
In the gate, a change of Jan-Christoph Bartels for Lukas Watkowiak is starting. In central defense, the pillars of the promotion team, Sascha Mockenhaupt and Niklas Dams, could get a chance. In the offensive, the coach has again more options available with Törles Knöll and Nicklas Shipnoski. However, there is Manuel Schäffler, who was one of the few bright spots with two goals last weekend.
Compared to fellow riders Wiesbaden prevails at the Bremen Bridge vain sunshine. The VfL got along well in the second league and is in the table with an eighth place. The team coached by Daniel Thioune scored seven of their ten seasonal points at home and had only six goals conceded. The advantage over the relegation zone is five points.
Before the game last weekend against St. Pauli, the contract with the successful coach was renewed ahead of schedule. For the third home win of the season, it was not enough against the Kiezkicker. After the 0-1 draw at Aue, coach Thioune had changed the starting eleven to four positions, more than ever before this season. Nevertheless, the purple-whites tied to the good home games against Darmstadt (4: 0) and the KSC (3: 0) and went early in the lead.
But after that, the hosts missed the second goal. The Hamburg came in the course of the game always better in the game and earned the end of the 1-1. Finally, the climber could live with the point. With the performance over the entire season was simply no longer in it.
Also the guests have to complain due to injury some failures. The VfL has to get by on foot without Körber, Engel, Gugganig, Haubrock, Susac and Trapp. Right-back Bashkim Ajdini, on the other hand, could celebrate his start-up comeback.
