Meppen and Stuttgart II meet in completely opposite states of form. The hosts just lost at home 0-1, and even though it was a match with a narrow scoreline, it was their fourth consecutive defeat. Meanwhile the visitors just drew 3-3 at home in an entertaining goal-filled game and are unbeaten in 2 straight. Meppen have an obvious problem in defense. This season they have already conceded 15 goals in 7 matches, averaging over two per game, while in attack they mainly pin their hopes on the late stages of games. As for Stuttgart II, although their results look better, their defense is no tighter, having been breached for 15 goals as well. The difference is that the visitors keep more possession and build their attack more consistently. This game should be open and end-to-end from the start, because both sides have problems in defense and both need points to pull away from the bottom of the table. If Meppen can settle and avoid conceding early like in several recent matches, they have enough to edge this game. But if they let the visitors dominate the ball and dictate the flow, it will immediately become a hard day's work. The thing to watch is whether Meppen can hold things together in the first half, because that is when they concede the most.
