Overview

• Dresden sits 14th with five points from six 2. Bundesliga matches.
• The team has repeatedly conceded shortly after scoring, including Hannover’s Noel Aseko equalizing 122 seconds after Dresden regained the lead.
• Thomas Stamm highlights open spaces through the middle and urges greater compactness to stop momentum swings.
• Konrad Faber presses for more pragmatic late-game choices and says the squad will go to Darmstadt aiming for three points.
• A demanding September pits Dresden against two leaders and a second-placed side, while young defender Julian Pauli returns as a boost but is still building fitness after cramp issues.
