Top game in Delmenhorst: VfV Hildesheim is fighting for the lead in the table!

An exciting duel is coming up on Saturday, November 22nd at 2 p.m.: SV Atlas Delmenhorst will welcome VfV Borussia 06 Hildesheim in a groundbreaking top game in the football league. Both teams appear extremely balanced and are almost level in the table with 27 points each from 13 games, just one point behind the leading team Germania Egestorf-Langreder, which has 28 points from 14 games. What a fight for the championship lead!

After a brilliant run, Delmenhorst has picked up four wins in the last five games, but the last appearance against Wilhelmshaven ended less gloriously with a defeat. A downer for the hosts: In the home round they only got nine points from seven games - there is still room for improvement. In contrast, VfV Borussia can shine with one of the best away performances: five wins from six away games show that they love the playing field outside of their own arena. A true chess game de facto!

Form curves and duels

Hildesheim's last defeat against Spelle was bitter, but before that they had a winning streak of three games. Louis Malina, VfV's top scorer, has already scored nine goals, while his counterpart from Delmenhorst, Nico Poplawski, is also drawing attention with eight goals. The two teams have also played against each other twice: While VfV won the Lower Saxony Cup on penalties against Atlas (7:6), the first leg in Hildesheim ended with a clear 5-1 defeat for Delmenhorst. An exciting third duel is coming!

However, the personnel situation at VfV is difficult: Karsan Doski, Hady El Saleh and Oliver Giesing are out due to injuries. But coach Ridha Kitar doesn't let that discourage her. He emphasizes the high level of concentration in training and has complete trust in his team. A clear focus on an intensive and high-quality game – that only makes the anticipation even greater!

The fight for the points

The signs point to an exciting, even game. The home fans and physical robustness speak for Atlas, while the away strength and responsiveness speak for Hildesheim. Who will win the race? Even Sportnews dares to make a prediction and sees VfV Borussia 06 Hildesheim as a 2-1 outsider favorite. It remains to be seen who can ultimately climb to the top of the table with the head of the game.
