Matchday Quote

The fact is: we're unbeaten in eleven games. That's good for a team, but what's crucial is how we handle it. You have to draw confidence from it and know that you can trust the things we do. Just because we're top of the table now doesn't mean our approach has changed.

Florian Kohfeldt ahead of the duel with Eintracht Braunschweig

Opposition View

Heiner Backhaus, head coach of Eintracht Braunschweig, at the pre-match press conference:

„Darmstadt’s core has been together for a long time and has formed a strong spine. They weathered some difficult periods last year. And the last time they lost this season, it felt like we were all still in our T-shirts. Darmstadt has strengths in every phase of the game. They play with structure, but they never play the same way and are capable of anything. Nevertheless, we know we can beat them here at home. We can break Darmstadt down with intensity. But for that, we need energy in the stadium.“
