Zeller played Peiting in the Oberliga South on Sunday, September 20th, 2026, and the visitors came away with a 6-5 win after a tight contest. Both sides have now completed two matches, each sitting on zero points despite the results on the board. Zeller remain in 11th place while Peiting hold fourth, though the table hardly tells the full story this early.
By then it was clear this one would go to the wire. We had tipped Zeller for victory at 77 per cent confidence, but the match refused to follow that script. Peiting showed enough composure to outlast the hosts in the closing stages, and that was enough to claim all three points.
And here's the thing about these early-season games — the standings haven't settled yet. Two defeats for Zeller and two wins for Peiting, but neither side has accumulated points on the board. The gap between them is theoretical rather than real at this stage.
Zeller's recent form has been mixed. They lost 4-3 to Pasing and 3-4 to Bregenzerwald in their last two outings, but before that they had victories over Passau and Bayreuth. Peiting, meanwhile, bounced back from a heavy 9-1 defeat to Pasing with a 6-2 win over Stuttgart in their most recent match.
To be fair, the result matters more than the points tally right now. Peiting have proven they can compete at this level, while Zeller need to find consistency after two defeats. The Oberliga South is wide open, and this match showed exactly that.
