HENNEF, Germany (Interstat) — Hennef 05 hosts SSV Bornheim on Sunday in an Oberliga matchup that could have playoff implications, with both teams seeking to reverse recent struggles.

Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. local time at the Sportplatz Hennef.

Hennef (4-11-2 in its last 17 league matches) enters on a three-game losing streak, most recently falling 3-0 at Siegburger SV on May 31. The home side has been inconsistent: it thumped Teutonia Weiden 4-1 on May 25 and battered SpVg Porz 1919 5-1 on May 17, but also suffered a 5-1 loss at Bergisch Gladbach on May 3 and a 6-3 defeat at Pesch on March 22. Over its last 10 games, Hennef has been outscored 26-22 overall, though it has shown explosive offense at times — notably a 6-0 win over Frechen on April 24.

SSV Bornheim (6-5-6 in its last 17) is also in a slump after a 6-3 home loss to VfL Vichttal on May 31. That defeat snapped a modest unbeaten run of three matches (2-0-1). Prior to that, Bornheim played to a 0-0 draw at Pesch on May 25, then beat GFC Düren 4-2 on May 17 and SC Fortuna Köln II 3-0 on May 10. The visitors have been volatile: they have scored three or more goals in six of their last 10 outings but have also been held scoreless in four of those games, including a 4-0 loss at Wegberg-Beeck on March 15 and a 3-0 defeat at B-W Koenigsdorf on April 26.

In the most recent head-to-head meeting on Dec. 12, 2025, SSV Bornheim defeated Hennef 3-1 at home. That result extended Bornheim’s edge in recent form, though the teams have traded wins over the past two seasons.

An Interstat game simulator projects a 2-2 draw, reflecting the two sides’ offensive capabilities and defensive vulnerabilities. Hennef’s home form has been middling (3-4-3 in its last 10 at the Sportplatz), while Bornheim has struggled on the road (2-3-5 in its last 10 away matches).

Both teams sit in the middle of the Oberliga table, with a win potentially lifting them into contention for a top-half finish. Hennef will rely on its attack, which has averaged 1.9 goals per game in its last 10, while Bornheim will look to tighten a defense that conceded six goals in its most recent match.

Sunday’s match will be the final meeting between the clubs this season.
