Under Dieter Hecking, whose second spell is a temporary one to rescue the club from relegation, Wolfsburg are 1-3-3 overall and 1-2-1 away, with their only victory having come on 18.

April - 2-1 against 1. FC Union Berlin. To add to this, the chances of Die Wölfe winning this match appear to be very slim.

Coincidentally, Hecking led the club in that victory - and has also defeated Vincent Kompany in the one and only occasion that they have met, 3-2 with VfL Bochum at the Allianz Arena on 8.
