Exciting derby: Wildcats want to celebrate their first win in Zwickau!
On Thursday, October 30, 2025, there will be an exciting derby between BSV Sachsen Zwickau and the Wildcats from Halle in the Sparkasse Arena Zwickau. In the Alsco Handball Bundesliga Women, both teams are still without a win after a bumpy start to the season and are therefore under pressure to urgently secure points. That's definitely what the Wildcats' coach, Ines Seidler, says, as she emphasizes the need for a highly concentrated style of play in order to finally celebrate the first success. dubisthalle.de reports that the Wildcats wanted to show a special energy performance during their preparations for the derby.
For the Wildcats, player Lynn Molenaar initially emphasized her enthusiasm: “It will be an exciting game and the support of our fans will help us.” The audience will also play a key role, as a large fan bus will travel from Halle to support the ladies as best they can. A delegation of USV Halle Panther handball players will also be represented.
Personnel changes at Zwickau
The hosts BSV Sachsen Zwickau have also experienced a significant change this season. After a major personnel change with a total of twelve departures and six new additions, the Zwickau team is in a transition phase. A central component in Zwickau's attacking game is the newcomer Silje Brons Petersen, who has already celebrated some successes in her career so far. The pressure is also on coach Norman Rentsch, who has prepared his team intensively for the upcoming duel.
Although Zwickau's offense had some high-scoring performances in the first league games, such as the recent 38:43 win against HSG Bensheim/Auerbach, the defense remains vulnerable. These weaknesses have led to Zwickau's current placement in 10th place in the table with only 0:8 points. blick.de illustrates this and presents the challenge of winning the next home game as well.
A look at the signs
For the Wildcats, the derby could represent a turning point in the course of the season, especially since Zwickau does not have a win and is currently in 11th place with 0:12 points. In previous games, such as against Oldenburg and Metzingen, Zwickau's offense showed its potential, but had difficulty turning things around on defense. Let's wait and see whether Zwickau can seal its first win when the Wildcats travel to their neighbors on Thursday.
Kick-off in the Sparkasse Arena will be at 7:00 p.m. and the game will be broadcast live on SportEurope.tv from 6:45 p.m. A real highlight that no fan should miss!
