FC 08 Homburg: Looking for compensation in Fulda!

After the 0-2 defeat against 1. FC Trier, FC 08 Homburg is facing a test in the Regionalliga Südwest. After seven games without a loss and an overall solid performance, the last match didn't go according to plan. However, coach Roland Seitz is convinced that the team will rise together after this disappointment. Homburg1 reports, Seitz emphasized that the defeat was not a complete relapse, even if the precision was lacking in the final third.

The next game is coming up next Sunday, against SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz. Kick-off in the city of Fulda stadium is scheduled for 2 p.m. Seitz definitely sees a chance of an away win if the last pass is played better. Player Frederik Baum is also optimistic and expects an intense encounter in which Homburg would like to take home the three points.

Challenging opponent Fulda

The SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz, which has 14 points in the table, is considered strong at home. From six home games they have only suffered one defeat and five draws. That means Homburg has to dress warmly because Fulda is a compact and experienced team. Seitz paints a picture of an opponent similar to Homburg at the beginning of the season—strong and difficult to play against.

The FCH personnel situation has eased somewhat following the return of Nils Röseler, Miguel Gonçalves and Steffen Nkansah. Unfortunately, the team is still missing several players, including Hilal El-Helwe and Michael Heilig, who have long-term injuries. Under these circumstances, the squad shows great potential to continue their good form.

Review of the last game against Fulda

In the last meeting with Fulda on matchday in the regional league, the match ended in a 1-1 draw. Homburg had a few good chances in the first half, including a header from Benjamin Kirchhoff that hit the crossbar. FC 08 Homburg reports Fulda took the lead in the second half through Kevin Hillmann, but Kirchhoff was able to equalize in the 79th minute.

In a game that turned out to be exciting, the Homburgers finished the season in 8th place in the table with a total of 47 points. The Cup final in the Sparkasse Cup Saar against FC Palatia Limbach is also on the agenda on May 24th, which should provide additional motivation for the team.

The next few weeks could be crucial for FC 08 Homburg, not only to confirm their current form, but also to strengthen their self-confidence in the face of further challenges. With over 100 Homburg fans who have registered for the match in Fulda, support will definitely not be lacking!
