Full-time whistle
Elversberg punished passive Fürth early and took a 2-0 lead into half-time thanks to a wonder goal from Sickinger. After the restart, Fürth comes out with a lot of pressure but fails to capitalise on their chances. Elversberg weathers the storm and regains control. Opportunities for Fellhauer and Damar underscore their dominance, but the hosts don't need to take many risks and their win was never in danger.

Elv still in control
The home team is not taking any chances, maintaining possession to prevent Fürth from having any opportunity to make a comeback.
83'
Hrgota injured
The striker was hit on the ankle while battling for a ball played forward, but is able to get up shortly after. Nevertheless, his day is over, as Siewert brings on Motika as a substitute.
81'
Elversberg is awake
After the break, Fürth wanted to press high, but not much of that remains. In total, Elversberg are winning the ball back earlier, taking 12.8 seconds compared to Fürth's 16.4.

Another attempt on goal
Quarshie gets a chance to head the ball, but fails to put enough power behind it, and it lands safely in the hands of SVE keeper Krsitof.
77'
Can they keep a clean sheet?
If the result stays the same, it would be an unusual situation: In their last seven home matches, Elversberg conceded 18 goals and never kept a clean sheet.
76'
Tenacious
Elversberg are not letting up. They've won 64 percent of the duels in the second half and remain the team with more attempts on goal (3-2) even after the break.
75'
Not enough
Overall, what the visitors are showing here is not enough. Elversberg can calmly pass the ball through their own ranks.
74'
Corner
A corner kick cross from Fürth briefly becomes dangerous as the Elversberg players positioned around the ball can't locate it. However, the visitors fail to capitalise on this, and play continues with Elversberg in possession.

Siwert brings on two fresh attacking players. Can Fürth get back into the game?

Foul on John
Petkov fouls John just outside the penalty area. He receives a yellow card for that.
63'
Elversberg regains the upper hand
The initial euphoria of Fürth after the restart has somewhat fizzled out, now Elversberg are circulating the ball again and creating dangerous chances, as just seen with Fellhauer and Damar.
61'
Fellhauer!
Another dangerous long-range shot, just like the one for the 2-0! The ball bounces right to Fellhauer's feet after a clearance by Fürth, and the holding midfielder doesn't hesitate to have a go. The low, swerving shot curls just wide of the right post, missing by mere centimetres!
60'
Short corner again
Elversberg prefer to play their corners short today. This time, Petkov receives the ball in the space behind and plays a sharp ball to the near post, where Damar is waiting, but his finish narrowly misses the goal.
59'
Another corner
The ball goes out for a goal kick after a header - a Fürth player got a touch on it.
58'
Elversberg fight back
Elversberg breaks free and manages to work the ball forward through combination play. Corner kick.
55'
Booking
Dietz receives a yellow card for his foul.
52'
Srbeny!
Klaus is served a cross and instead of heading it directly, he lays it back to Srbeny. The latter is slightly pushed and therefore can't get his shot away. Chance thwarted, but referee Schwengers deems it all within the bounds of what's allowed.
50'
Corner for Fürth
John delivers the ball well, but Elverberg gets his head to it. The game is currently taking place in Elversberg's half.
48'
Lively start
Fürth immediately press forward. The men in green certainly aren't giving up here.

We're back underway!
The ball is rolling again in Elversberg.

Half-time in Elversberg
Two good goals have lit up an otherwise rather sluggish match. Elversberg took an early lead against a passive defence, and then sat back without taking too many risks going forward. Then, just as Fürth were showing some improvement, Sickinger extended the lead to 2-0 with a brilliant long-range effort.

Goooal!
And what a goal it is, making it 2-0! Loosli manages to clear a rather harmless cross from the right, but the ball lands directly in front of Sickinger who volleys home a superb second.
43'
Next set-piece situation
Fürth will have the chance to do better immediately. Consbruch wins a free kick in a left-of-centre position after a forward run.
42'
Offside
A potential opportunity is nipped in the bud as the officiating team flags for an offside position.
41'
Venomous
Neubauer loses the ball during build-up play against the tenacious Hrgota, who is subsequently fouled. Free-kick opportunity for the visitors...

Nice set-piece routine
Neubauer plays a low corner kick back to the onrushing Petkov, who has time and space, but misses the target. The pitch is likely to blame here, as it's causing real problems for the players.
32'
Midfield battle
Currently, there's little action going forward. Elversberg is allowing Fürth to control the play while maintaining a solid defensive structure.

Huge chance for Fürth!
Klaus sends Consbruch through on the right, who crosses back to Klaus. He lays it off to the left for Srbeny, but his shot is unsuccessful. A waste of a good opportunity.

Intense
Currently, the match is taking place in midfield, with tackles being made forcefully. Now Itter has brought down his opponent Fellhauer, but referee Schwengers manages without showing a yellow card.

Curious incident
Itter brings Petkov down on the touchline – resulting in the latter landing directly on the assistant referee Maibaum, who requires brief treatment. The match resumes shortly after.
15'
Asllani!
The goalscorer appears again, finding himself free in front of Noll, but then rushes his shot. The keeper manages to tip it over the bar, and the resulting corner comes to nothing.
13'
Patchy pitch
There are large patches of bare earth visible on the pitch and, as a result, some ground passes are bouncing erratically. However, both teams are coping well with it so far.
12'
Free kick
John takes a free kick from the left-centre, but it gets stuck in Elv's defensive line.
9'
Fürth seeks the appropriate response
Fürth are looking to make amends after going behind and are now in possession for longer periods. A harmless long-range shot came out of it, but otherwise it's difficult to find a gap in Elversberg's defensive unit at the moment.
9'
No goalless draw this time
The first meeting between these two earlier this season ended goalless, but today the deadlock has been broken very early.

Clinical
Elversberg scored with their very first shot on goal.

Goal!
Neubauer sends the ball through on the left to Zimmerschied, who calmly runs into the penalty area unchallenged before playing a low cross for Asllani to tap home.

Corner for Elversberg
Now it's a corner kick at the other end. The hosts play it short, but in the end, Damar loses the ball while dribbling.

Klaus for Mause
Compared to the 2-1 home victory against Regensburg, Fürth make one change: Felix Klaus is fit again, replacing Jannik Mause from the start.
Elversberg unchanged
Horst Steffen sends the same starting lineup into the match as last week, having no reason to change anything after the convincing 3-0 victory in Darmstadt.
Fürth starting XI
Noll - Loosli, Quarshie, Itter - Meyerhöfer, Münz, Consbruch, John - Hrgota, Klaus - Srbeny
Elversberg starting XI
Kristof - Baum, Pinckert, Rohr, Neubauer - Fellhauer, Sickinger - Petkov, Damar, Zimmerschied - Asllani
Jan Siewert on facing Elversberg
"Elversberg focus on possession play. Our first task will be to disrupt the opponent's rhythm. After winning the ball, we need to create options to pose problems for Elversberg."
Horst Steffen on facing Fürth
"They have found their structure. However, in their play, they repeatedly make adjustments and tweak different positionings so that's something we must pay attention to. We are prepared to defend well against them, but we also want to try to implement our attacking play against any formation."
The returnee
The only player in the current Fürth squad who has already won a second division match against Elversberg is Felix Klaus. In August 2023, he was among the scorers in Fortuna Düsseldorf's 5-0 victory at the Ursapharm-Arena an der Kaiserlinde.
Stock in focus
In that convincing victory nearly a year ago, Paul Stock scored Elversberg's first - and only - Bundesliga 2 hat-trick. Since then, though, Stock hasn't found the back of the net at all.
Good omen
Elversberg have not lost any of their three competitive matches against Greuther Fürth to date. They have drawn twice (including a 0-0 result in this season's reverse fixture), and in March 2024, the hosts celebrated their highest away victory in Bundesliga 2 with a 4-1 win at the Sportpark Ronhof.
