Wehen Wiesbaden vs Waldhof Mannheim

WEHEN WIESBADEN, Germany (Interstat) — Wehen Wiesbaden hosts Waldhof Mannheim on Sunday in a 3. Liga match with both sides seeking momentum as the German third-division season enters its final stretch.

The matchup at BRITA-Arena pits two clubs coming off disappointing losses last weekend. Wehen Wiesbaden (12-9-10) fell 2-1 at Viktoria Köln on April 11, a result preceded by a shocking 4-1 home defeat to Havelse. Mannheim (11-8-12) was routed 4-1 at home by MSV Duisburg in its last outing.

Recent form favors the visitors slightly. Waldhof Mannheim is 3-2-2 in its last seven league matches, including a 2-1 victory over Erzgebirge Aue and a 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim. Their attack has been inconsistent, however, blanked in two of those contests.

Wehen Wiesbaden’s form has been more troubling, with just one win in its last five matches (1-1-3). That lone victory was a notable 2-1 upset of Stuttgart on March 7, highlighting the team’s potential amidst recent struggles. A 6-1 thrashing of Duisburg in February also showcases their offensive capability.

The head-to-head history gives Waldhof Mannheim a psychological edge. The teams last met on Nov. 22, 2025, with Mannheim securing a 1-0 home victory.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, Sunday’s contest is projected to end in a 1-1 draw. That result would extend Mannheim’s current unbeaten run on the road to three matches, while leaving Wehen Wiesbaden without a win in three straight at home.

The fixture carries importance for mid-table positioning. Both clubs will view this as a winnable game to stabilize their campaigns before a demanding schedule. For Wehen Wiesbaden, it’s a chance to reverse a troubling home trend. For Waldhof Mannheim, it’s an opportunity to build consistency and complete a season sweep.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. local time (1100 GMT).

Upcoming schedules: Wehen Wiesbaden travels to face Erzgebirge Aue on April 25, then hosts Osnabrück on May 3. Waldhof Mannheim hosts FT Schweinfurt on April 25 before visiting Saarbrücken on May 2.
