THE PREDICTION

These two sides are level on points and both go into this meeting in reasonably good form. After three successive defeats before Christmas, Karlsruher SC have taken 10 points from their four matches in the new year. Their recent games have also tended to be high on goals, with 10 of the last 12 producing three or more. Hannover 96 have similarly made a strong start to 2021 and come into this one on the back of a 5-2 victory at Nurnberg on Sunday. In total, Kenan Kocak’s side have registered 13 goals in their last four outings and they have a striker in form in Marvin Ducksch, who bagged his ninth of the campaign against Nurnberg. The result is a difficult one to call given how evenly matched the two teams are, so consider the Over 2.5 Goals market instead.
