THE PREDICTION
Hannover’s hectic April continues as they catch up on their games that were postponed last month. Kenan Kocak’s men go into this one with momentum after coming from 3-0 down to salvage a point at home to Hamburger SV on Sunday, their fourth draw in five games. They will now be looking to claim their first win in six against bottom-of-the-table and managerless Wurzburger Kickers. The visitors realistically need to win this to stand any chance of survival after losing to relegation rivals Sandhausen at the weekend, but that will be a tall order as they have won just once on their travels all season, losing all their other away matches. Hannover are actually one of the few teams Kickers have managed to beat this term but given their dire away form and the fact they have the worst defensive record in the division, a home win with over 2.5 goals into the bargain is recommended here.
