THE PREDICTION
After four successive defeats at the start of the year, four points from their last two games have eased Darmstadt 98 away from the bottom three, and it would have been six points were it not for a last-minute equaliser at Jahn Regensburg last Saturday. One of the teams they have leapfrogged in the bottom half of the table is Nurnberg, who have lost their last four games and taken just one point from the last six. On top of that, coach Robert Klauss has an injury crisis in attack with top scorer Manuel Schaffler and winger Robin Hack joining the busy treatment room this week. Coupled with the fact that Nurnberg have found the net just once in their last four away outings, Darmstadt to win to nil could be a smart choice.
