Empor Rostock is fighting for important points against HSG Eider Harde
On Saturday, November 8th, the Hohner Werner-Kuhrt-Halle in Rostock will be the scene of an exciting duel in the 3rd handball league. HC Empor Rostock meets HSG Eider Harde, and the signs couldn't be clearer: Both teams urgently need points for the promotion round, but while Empor is in 8th place in the table with a record of 8:8, Eider Harde is in 7th place with 8:12 points.
The coach of HC Empor Rostock, Michael Jacobsen, is optimistic. After the recent victories against DHK Flensborg (32:21) and HSG Ostsee N/G (43:30), the players are full of self-confidence. Goalkeeper Leon Mehler emphasizes the need to show the strong home form away from home and thus set the course for the second half of the season. A look back at the past encounters speaks for Empor: In the last encounter, Eider Harde was defeated with a narrow 38:35.
Current challenges and returnees
Despite these positive developments, there are also challenges. HC Empor has to do without some injured players. Elias Gansau is struggling with knee problems, his appearance is questionable, and Julian Pratschner is expected to miss several weeks due to pubic bone inflammation. On the other hand, Empor can announce the return of Richard Lößner after his comeback from fourth division club SG Uni Greifswald/Loitz. He will remain with the team with a contract until June 30, 2027.
The next home game will take place on Friday, November 14th at 7 p.m. against HC Eintracht Hildesheim, who are currently in second place with an impressive record of 16:2 behind leaders MTV Braunschweig (18:2). This game also promises pure excitement and could have a significant impact on Rostock's fate this season.
Offspring and other events
But it's not just the men who are in focus. The youth Bundesliga teams from HC Empor are also doing the honors: the B youth will play against the Lausitzer HC Cottbus on Saturday at 12.30 p.m., followed by the A juniors, who will play against THW Kiel at 2.45 p.m.
Considering all these factors, the encounter against Eider Harde will be a real test for the Rostock team. With a good result, they can further strengthen their self-confidence and prepare for the decisive games in the league. The team is ready to take on the challenge and fans can be excited about what's to come.
