Things have been a little worse for THW Kiel recently. The North Germans have been without a win in three competitive games. After Kiel’s successful entry into the main round of the European League, things are no longer going so well for head coach Filip Jícha’s team. From the last four Bundesliga games there was only one win and three draws. Among other things, the THW dropped points against Eisenach, Lemgo and most recently against Hannover-Burgdorf. This means that Kiel is in fifth place with 25 points and, with 18 games, is already eight points behind the league leaders from Magdeburg, who have only played 17 games. There was also a narrow 30:32 defeat against Füchse Berlin in the quarter-finals of the DHB Cup.
6:36 p.m
SC Magdeburg has been unbeaten since the end of September and is at the top of the Handball Bundesliga table with 33 points and one game less than SG Flensburg-Handewitt.
