Meppen welcome Ingolstadt on Saturday, Dec 19 at 2:00 PM in a 3. Liga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Meppen come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Ingolstadt, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 0D 3L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

In 6 previous meetings, Meppen lead 1–3 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Ingolstadt won 3–0.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Meppen a slight edge, but Ingolstadt are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
