State league: maturity test for the front runner

The Meraners are now facing their second, big test of maturity in the second half of the season: after St. Pauls, who were then in second place, were put in their place 1-0 on the second match day, Partschins will now throw everything into the balance to ensure their strong second half of the season to add another chapter and trip up the sovereign league leaders. But be careful: When Obermais slid into a 1:4 debacle in Leifers three weeks ago, the people of Merano were about as aggressive as an excited bumblebee. Milland painfully felt the sting of the Klotzner team with a 1:5, while Stegen was also clearly shown the angry face of the Obermais team at 2:4. Partschins doesn't have to hide at the moment: Felix Rungg & Co. surprisingly dropped points against Milland last Sunday (0-0), but the previous winning streak of five successes in a row suggests that the footballers from Lower Vinschgau are in in an impressive shape.

Weinstraße Süd as a laughing third party? At the end of the game day, another team could also emerge as the winner of the round: Weinstraße Süd faces a mandatory task against Natz and could end up in third place if Partschins and Obermais take the points. Weinstraße is currently seven points behind the leader.

Game of fate in Latsch In Vinschgau, on the other hand, there is a relegation hit par excellence: the third-to-last Latsch meets the second-to-last Milland. For the Eisacktaler, this encounter can confidently be viewed as the last straw: in the event of a defeat, the gap to the saving places would increase to at least five points. Latsch, on the other hand, doesn't want to lose touch with Salurn with a win. The 26th matchday will be opened by Lana and Stegen: The two teams will face each other on Saturday at 15 p.m. in Lana.
