Kaufbeuren claimed a 6-3 victory away to Zelleber in the Oberliga South on Tuesday evening. The result keeps the visitors in fourth place while the hosts remain eighth in the table after eight games. Both sides had played the same number of matches before this fixture.
The away team extended their winning run with this performance. They have now recorded five victories from eight outings, though they sit level on points with several other clubs at the top of the table. Zelleber's record of three wins and five defeats leaves them rooted to eighth spot.
Recent form has seen both teams involved in high-scoring encounters. Zelleber's last five matches produced goals at a rate of nearly four per game, while Kaufbeuren have been similarly productive in attack. The visitors' most recent result was a 3-2 win against Stuttgart, followed by a string of results that showed their offensive capability.
Our prediction of an away victory proved correct. The visitors had the quality to dominate and they took their chances. Kaufbeuren's attacking options proved too much for Zelleber's defence, and the result reflected the gap between the sides on this occasion.
The three-goal margin gives Kaufbeuren confidence as they look to consolidate their position. Zelleber will need to improve defensively if they want to climb away from the bottom half of the table.
