Competition: Bundesliga 2
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 4/7 @ BetUS
Two sides who are only separated by their goal difference, Nurnberg will welcome Darmstadt to Bavaria on Friday evening.
Starting with the hosts, while Nurnberg might have collected consecutive Bundesliga 2 victories on either side of Germany’s festive break, Miroslav Klose’s side have drastically failed to find any kind of stability. Last seen falling to a routine 3-1 loss away at Schalke, the Bavaria-based outfit have won just a pair of their previous nine second-tier showdowns. With that rut stemming all the way back to a remarkable 8-3 romp against Jahn Regensburg on October 25th, the former Bayern Munich striker will certainly be excited to make a return to home soil here. Despite their extended inconsistencies, Nurnberg will take plenty of solace from their success in Bavaria. Last seen at the Max-Morlock-Stadion collecting a 2-1 victory against Karlsruhe, Friday’s hosts are unbeaten in their last six straight matchups in front of their own supporters. It should also be noted, Klose’s side have seen six of their previous seven Bundesliga 2 battles finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, while Darmstadt might have opened up the 2024/25 campaign with their sights set on booking an immediate Bundesliga return, the Lillies find themselves in an almost identical position to Friday’s opponents. Getting this weekend’s fixtures underway scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the table, Florian Kohfeldt’s side have recorded just a single victory from any of their previous seven appearances. With that run stemming back to a 2-1 win away at Hannover on November 23rd, the Hesse-based outfit are also seeking their own defensive stability. Heading into Germany’s festive break with a 2-1 loss at the hands of Regensburg, Darmstadt have recorded just a single clean sheet across any competition so far this season. Two sides who open Friday’s showdown sat with just their goal difference separating them in the Bundesliga 2 standings, we are expecting what could be an enjoyable affair from Bavaria this weekend.
