THE PREDICTION

With Hamburger SV winning on Tuesday evening, Holstein Kiel are aiming to reclaim top spot in Bundesliga 2 and make it four wins on the bounce. Ole Werner’s men have lost just one of their 11 league matches this season, and that came against fellow high-flyers Greuther Furth. Nurnberg are in decent form themselves, though, winning three of their last four matches, with the exception again being a defeat to Furth. Der Club have also scored at least once in all their league games this term, while both teams have scored in each of Kiel’s last five at home, so both sides should be fancied to find the back of the net.
