Defensive solidity has not been his strong point, having conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 games but his attack has scored regularly as he has scored goals in 9 of the last 10 games for this competition. In his games as a visitor there is a tendency to have goals, since 10 of his last 14 matches for the competition ended with more than 2.5 goals. In 28 games in this competition, he only managed 1 turn on the scoreboard in 14 games in which he suffered the first goal.
The constant oscillations almost ended the dream of Duisburg go to the first division, but worse, did not even free the risk of relegation, so it should remain focused on the final rounds. In his current showdown he will play away from home and we know that this makes it difficult a little more, but his opponent does not come so well in the competition and because of this he knows that if he plays well and without errors he can get a favorable score. A draw is something you can not complain about, but winning would be much better, even more so at this point. For this match coach Ilia Gruev will not be able to count on Fabian Schnellhardt who is in the medical department.
