Match Preview
Erzgebirge Aue hosts Bayreuth in a friendly match at the Erzgebirgsstadion on July 11th, offering both teams a chance to assess their squads ahead of the new season. Aue's recent form shows a mixed bag, with two losses in their last five matches, while Bayreuth has struggled similarly, managing just one win in their last five outings. This match presents an opportunity for Aue to build confidence after a disappointing end to their previous campaign, particularly as they play at home.
A notable aspect to consider is the head-to-head record, which reveals that Aue has historically had the upper hand, winning only once in their last ten encounters against Bayreuth. However, both teams have struggled defensively, with only one match seeing over 2.5 goals in their last ten meetings. This could suggest a closely contested match, potentially leaning towards a low-scoring affair. As both teams look to fine-tune their tactics, expect an intriguing battle, with Aue likely aiming to leverage their home advantage to secure a morale-boosting victory.
