They do not take corners very successfully in the first halves. Ingolstadt may risk setting a target for the first half, while the women's Bayern team in the second league should not focus on the first half; they pick up the pace more in the second half.

Lotte will not want to spoil their record of wins in home matches; they have gone too long without losing, and they should not lose the final game.

The teams will be evenly matched today, but each team has a different objective. While some are playing for survival, others are just seeing out the season. If the game is important, needed and essential for some, everything is fine for others even without taking the field.
