SSV Jahn Regensburg: Saturday’s opponents by numbers

The third away match of the season takes the team to Regensburg (kick-off: Saturday, 13:00 CEST), with Tim Walter’s men looking for their first three-pointer on their travels. Below are some facts and figures about SSV Jahn.

1/2

SSV Jahn Regensburg have conceded half of their six goals so far this season from headers – more than any other team in the second tier.

3-1

3-1 either way has been the result in both of Regensburg’s two home matches so far. In their season opener they defeated VfL Bochum, before slipping to defeat by that scoreline three weeks ago when Bielefeld came to town.

5

SSV Jahn Regensburg ended the 2017/2018 season under coach Achim Beierlorzer in fifth position in the table – their highest-ever final placing. They recorded 14 wins and 14 losses, and their goals for and against were similarly balanced, with 53 of each.

7

This is Regensburg’s best start to a second-division campaign to date. They have picked up seven points from their first five matches (two wins, a draw and two defeats) to leave them in mid-table.

212

Oliver Hein is the active player with the greatest number of appearances for SSV. The 29-year-old came through the U-19 ranks in Regensburg and made his first-team debut 10 years ago in the third division. This is his 11th campaign with the club, for whom he has racked up 212 appearances.

15,210

The Continental Arena holds 15,210 spectators and will be sold out for the first time this season on Saturday. Around 2,000 away fans are set to make the trip to cheer on VfB.
