Figures & Facts: The top facts about the Regensburg game

… in the 2nd Bundesliga, SV Darmstadt has 98! No other team in the league has so far scored more goals than the Lilies – 35 in total. Particularly noteworthy: The South Hesse team scored five goals of their own in four games. This was the case in the victories at Schalke (5-3) and in Fürth (5-1) as well as in the home games against Köln (5-1) and Kaiserslautern (5-1). All other teams only managed to do something like this once, if at all. Darmstadt 98 is also the most efficient team in the league: the Lilies only need an average of seven shots on goal to score a goal.

Will Darmstadt win? Or Regensburg? And can the spectators – no matter who wins – expect a 2-0 result at the weekend? The last four duels between the two teams ended with exactly this result. The winner changed again and again, but the scoreboard always showed 2-0. The last time both teams were in the same league was in 2022/23: Regensburg won 2-0 at home, the Lilien won 2-0 at the Bölle. In a direct comparison, however, the side from Bavaria are in a much better position against South Hesse: Unfortunately, Jahn was able to win eleven of the last 17 home games.

SSV Jahn Regensburg has led the most duels in the current season (3,474) – no other team has. The other side of the coin? Jahn was only able to win 47.8 percent of them, which is the weakest value in the league. Speaking of intensity. In terms of running, the Darmstadt team under Florian Kohfeldt have stepped up their game. The team runs an average of four kilometres more (117) than before Kohfeldt took office. The Lilies also recorded 15 sprints and 80 more intensive runs.

Both head coaches once coached abroad. Both Florian Kohfeldt and Andreas Patz worked on the sidelines of Belgian clubs. While the Regensburg coach was employed at Excelsior Mouscron and Cercle Brügge, Kohfeldt was under contract as head coach at KAS Eupen.

With only eight points collected, SSV Jahn Regensburg is at the bottom of the 2nd Bundesliga – five points behind the relegation place. Jahn has never had such a record after 16 match days in the 2nd league. Certainly two good reasons for this are the goals scored (7) and goals conceded (38) – these are both the fewest and most in the competition. But there could have been significantly more own hits – even more than twice as many. The SSV has an xGoals value of 16.8. Therefore: The Lilies definitely must not underestimate the bottom of the table!

Fabian Nürnberger and Kai Klefisch currently have four yellow cards. On the opposing side, Kai Pröger has to be careful because of his four yellow cards.
