Expected score: Kassel 4-2 Landshut
Kassel welcome Landshut to DEL 2 on 18 October in a match that pits the league's second-placed side against a struggling visitor. The hosts sit on 17 points from 8 games, while Landshut occupy sixth place with 13 points. This is a chance for Kassel to extend their advantage and keep the pressure on the top of the table.
Team form
Kassel
Kassel have been the more consistent outfit in recent weeks. Over their last five games, they've scored 20 goals and conceded 17, averaging 4.0 per game at both ends. They've won three of their last five DEL 2 fixtures, including a dominant 7-3 victory away at Dresdner Eislowen and a 4-2 home win over Lausitzer Fuchse. Their only league loss in that run came against Crimmitschau, when they fell 3-5 at home, but they've bounced back well since then. The hosts know how to put the puck in the net and have shown they can score in volume.
Landshut
Landshut are in real trouble. Their last five games tell a worrying story: they've managed just 11 goals while conceding 20, a concerning 2.2 per game scored against 4.0 conceded. They've won only two of their last five, and their recent form in the league has been particularly poor. Defeats to Crimmitschau (1-5) and Dresdner Eislowen (2-5) show they're struggling defensively, and they haven't found a way to shut down opponents. Their only bright spot was a 3-2 away win at Freiburg, but that's been overshadowed by heavy losses.
Head-to-head
There is no head-to-head record available between these two sides, so we're looking at this fixture on form alone.
Key factors
Kassel's attacking prowess is the standout feature here. They average 4.0 goals per game over their last five outings and have shown they can score against quality opponents. Landshut's defence has been leaky, conceding 4.0 per game in the same period. The visitors' low scoring rate—just 2.2 per game—means they'll struggle to keep pace if Kassel get into their rhythm. Home advantage also matters in hockey; Kassel have won their recent home matches convincingly. Landshut need to tighten up defensively and find some attacking spark, but the evidence suggests they're not equipped to do either against this opponent.
Prediction
Kassel are clear favourites here. They sit higher in the table, have been more prolific in front of goal, and have won more of their recent games. Landshut's defensive frailties and low scoring output make them vulnerable to a Kassel side that knows how to put teams away. The hosts should dominate possession and create the better chances. While Landshut may grab a goal or two on the counter, Kassel's superior form and home-ice advantage point strongly toward a comfortable victory.
Back Kassel to win. The hosts are the clear favourites and should have enough firepower to overcome a Landshut side that has been leaking goals. Expect a convincing home performance that keeps Kassel's title push on track.
