THE PREDICTION

Holstein Kiel can go top for a few hours at least if they beat basement boys Wurzburger Kickers on Friday evening. If they do, it would be their fourth victory in five league games after coming out on top against promotion rivals Fortuna Dusseldorf last time out. Kiel have actually picked up more points on their travels than at the Holstein-Stadion this season but they have scored in every home game and face the joint-worst away team in the division here. Kickers’ miserable form on the road continued last Sunday with a 4-1 reverse at Greuther Furth, the eighth time this term that the league’s leakiest defence have conceded two or more goals away from home. A Kiel win combined with over 2.5 goals therefore looks a good option to consider.
