THE PREDICTION
It has been a miserable January for Darmstadt 98, who are the only side in Bundesliga 2 not to have collected a single point from their four matches this year. That alarming run of form has left them just three points above Wednesday’s opponents in the relegation play-off spot, making this a crucial game for both teams. Sandhausen were denied three points by a late equaliser at home to second-placed Bochum on Sunday but they have lost seven of their eight away league matches this season, with the only success coming against basement boys Wurzburger Kickers. That aside, they have scored just two goals on the road and with the hosts low on confidence and without a goal in over 200 minutes of football, Under 2.5 Goals looks a good option.
