Ansbach vs SpVgg Unterhaching - Regionalliga - Bayern

The Regionalliga - Bayern returns to the home ground on March 24, 2026, where Ansbach and SpVgg Unterhaching will lock horns in a contest that could shape their respective campaigns. That coronation came from City's £116m summer signing Elliot Anderson - and has been hotly debated in the build-up to the Manchester derby Super Sunday showdown at Old Trafford, which you can watch live on Sky Sports.

Both Ansbach and SpVgg Unterhaching will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Regionalliga - Bayern. Ansbach are in the midst of a difficult spell, WLLLL in their last five summing up a win rate of 14.29%. SpVgg Unterhaching travel in decent nick, W in their last five and a win rate of 57.14% this season. Goals could be in short supply or plentiful — Ansbach average 0.57 per game to SpVgg Unterhaching's 1.29, and that gap may dictate the rhythm of the contest. Skinner had another year to run on his contract but has decided to move on a month out from United beginning their Women’s Super League season at London City Lionesses on September 4.

Stylistically, this is a compelling matchup. Ansbach favour a patient, possession-based approach, whereas SpVgg Unterhaching are at their most dangerous when allowed to hit quickly on the counter. Moving the Dane on frees up space and gives the Partenopei greater room to press ahead with their incoming transfer plans.

The fixture is likely to be shaped by its key performers, with creative midfielders and clinical finishers on both sides capable of turning the game in an instant. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. He produced a sublime assist for Reijnders' goal and then played a huge part in Muamba's rebound finish as his shot after cutting inside was parried straight to the striker to tap home.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. The signals point towards a stalemate, with the two sides closely matched across form and standings. A 1-1 draw is easy to envisage. The result at the home ground could resonate well beyond matchday in the Regionalliga - Bayern picture. And Fonseca does not place too much weight on the decision of Roberto Martinez to omit him from the World Cup squad in favour of his Benfica team-mate Tomas Araujo.
