SOCCER PREVIEW: Weidenhausen vs. Waldgirmes, Oberliga

WEIDENHAUSEN, Germany (Interstat) — Weidenhausen will host Waldgirmes on Saturday, May 2, in an Oberliga matchup that pits two clubs trending in opposite directions. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. local time.

Weidenhausen enters the contest on a five-match winless streak, having lost four of its last five. The home side’s most recent outing was a 4-0 defeat at R-W Walldorf on April 12. That setback followed a 4-1 home loss to Eddersheim on April 6, a 1-0 defeat against Hunfelder SV on April 2, and a 2-1 win over SV Darmstadt II on March 28 — Weidenhausen’s only victory in its last eight games. The team has been outscored 16-5 in that span.

Waldgirmes, by contrast, arrives with momentum. The visitors defeated CSC C03 Kassel 2-0 on April 26, snapping a three-match winless run. Prior to that, Waldgirmes drew 2-2 with SV Hummetroth on April 6, lost 3-0 to Fernwald on April 2, and drew 2-2 with R-W Walldorf on March 28. Waldgirmes has shown inconsistency: a 1-0 win at Turk Friedberg on March 13 was followed by a 3-0 loss at Eintracht Frankfurt II on March 7 and a 3-0 home defeat to Turabdin Babylon on Feb. 28. The team has scored 11 goals in its last 10 matches while conceding 15.

The head-to-head record favors Weidenhausen, which won the most recent meeting 1-0 at Waldgirmes on Oct. 11, 2025. That result snapped a run of two draws in the prior three encounters. Overall, the teams have split their last six contests, with Weidenhausen winning two, Waldgirmes two, and two draws.

Weidenhausen will look to tighten a defense that has allowed 12 goals in its last five home games. Waldgirmes, meanwhile, will rely on a counterattacking style that produced the shutout win over Kassel. Both teams are mid-table in the Oberliga standings, with Weidenhausen holding a slight edge in points.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 2-2 draw, reflecting the potential for an open, evenly matched contest. Weidenhausen will be without midfielder Lukas Berger (yellow-card suspension), while Waldgirmes lists forward Jonas Richter as questionable with a hamstring strain.
