Goals have flowed freely in the 3. Liga this season. With 762 goals in 241 matches and an average of 3.16 per game, defences have struggled to contain the attacking talent on show across the 2025/2026 campaign.

Title Race. VfL Osnabrück have opened up a commanding 5-point lead at the top of the table. Energie Cottbus, in second on 53 points, face an uphill battle to close the gap before the season ends.
