Hansa Rostock host Meppen in the 3. Liga. The two have met several times before, and their most recent meeting ended in a win for Hansa Rostock, but the context is different this time, because Meppen are in a spell where they are playing more solidly than before and are no longer a team that will come and lose easily. Hansa Rostock are still clearly the stronger side overall, especially when playing at home. They tend to control the game and create chances continuously, while Meppen come with their strengths in team defending and patient defensive play, waiting for the moment to counter when the opponent pushes high. This game is likely to take the shape of Hansa Rostock opening up and attacking, while Meppen drop back into a tight defensive block and wait for counterattacks or set pieces. If Meppen can handle the pressure in the early part of the game, the match will drag on even longer and end in a way where the hosts are not as far ahead as many people think.
