SINGEN, Germany (Interstat) — VfR Mannheim will aim to extend its unbeaten streak when it visits Turkischer Singen on Sunday, April 26, in an Oberliga matchup that pits a surging side against a team mired in a deep slump.

Mannheim enters the weekend undefeated in its last five matches, a stretch that includes two wins and three draws. The visitors most recently blanked Karlsruher 2-0 on April 18, building on a 1-1 draw at Ravensburg three days earlier and a scoreless tie at Hollenbach on April 11. That run has lifted Mannheim to the upper half of the table, fueled by a defense that has allowed just two goals during the span.

Turkischer Singen, by contrast, has lost four of its last five outings, with the only non-defeat a 1-1 draw against FSV 08 Bietigheim-Bissingen on March 29. Most recently, Singen fell 3-0 at VfR Aalen on April 18, part of a stretch that includes a 5-1 loss at Normannia Gmund and a 6-1 defeat at FC Nöttingen. The home side has been outscored 16-5 in its last five matches and has not won since a 3-1 victory at Denzlingen on March 7.

The head-to-head history favors Mannheim. In the most recent meeting on Oct. 11, 2025, Mannheim routed Singen 4-0 at home. That result extended Mannheim’s dominance in the series, though Singen has managed competitive contests in previous seasons.

Despite the disparity in recent form, Interstat’s game simulator projects a 2-2 draw. The forecast suggests that Turkischer Singen, desperate to halt its slide, could find attacking inspiration at home, while Mannheim’s steady back line may face its stiffest test in weeks.

Mannheim’s overall season pattern shows consistency. The team has won seven of 12 recorded matches since late November, including a 6-2 thrashing of FSV 08 Bietigheim-Bissingen on March 7 and a 4-2 victory at Backnang on Nov. 22. Losses have been rare, with only a 3-0 defeat at FC Nöttingen on Feb. 28 marring an otherwise resilient campaign.

Turkischer Singen’s season has been erratic. The team opened December with a 4-0 win at Turk Neckarsulm, but has since managed only one victory in its last 10 matches. A 3-1 win at Denzlingen on March 7 stands as a bright spot; otherwise, the defense has been porous, conceding three or more goals in seven of those contests.

Sunday’s match kicks off at 3 p.m. local time at the Singen Sportpark. Both teams will be looking to gain momentum as the Oberliga season enters its final stretch. For Mannheim, a win would solidify its push toward the top of the table; for Singen, any points would be a relief after a difficult month.
