The EHC, however, won its game on Sunday 5-2 against the Löwen Frankfurt. It was only in the final third that the Red Bulls were able to break away and benefited from a double strike within 51 seconds that put them on the road to victory. After this home win, Maxi Kastner is now calling for more action: “We have to play against Nuremberg the same way we stopped against Frankfurt in the last third,” that is, “straight, simple and with a move to the goal.”

The Ice Tigers also suffered a clear 5-0 defeat at the Eisbären Berlin on the last match day, but the overall result was a bit too high. The Eisbären were very efficient in this game and Nuremberg failed to capitalize on their own chances. Their still very good record on special teams also suffered a bit in this game. For the first time, we were unable to score a goal in our own majority. Despite this, the Ice Tigers continued to score half of their own goals with the advantage, and their 32 percent success rate with the advantage is the top in the league.

The first Bavarian duel of this young season is coming up. In the duel between their neighbors in the table (sixth and seventh place before this matchday), the Red Bulls want to celebrate their second home win in a row and the Ice Tigers finally want to break their away curse. The Nuremberg team are still without a point on foreign ice.
