THE PREDICTION

Hannover 96 go into this encounter in their best form of the season, having taken 10 points from the last 15 on offer and conceded a solitary goal, culminating in a 4-0 win over Sandhausen last Sunday. However, the Reds have lost eight of their last ten Bundesliga 2 away matches, collecting just four of their 20 points on the road this season. Hosts Darmstadt 98 are a difficult side to predict, with their results in recent months ranging from 4-0 defeats to 4-0 wins. But despite their position in the lower half of the table, only two teams in the division have scored more goals than the Lilies, so it is unlikely that Hannover will keep a clean sheet on this occasion, meaning Both Teams to Score is certainly a market to consider here.
