THE PREDICTION
Holstein Kiel are on a roll right now and made it four wins in the space of just over a week with a 3-2 victory over Jahn Regensburg on Thursday. That moved them four points clear in second place and they can seal promotion to the Bundesliga for the first time in the club’s history on Sunday. All four of those wins did come at home and Ole Werner’s side have not been as strong on their travels lately, but they now face a Karlsruher side who are winless in nine games, although they did draw seven of those. Kiel are firm favourites here but draw no bet is also worth considering given KSC’s recent flurry of draws and the fact that a point may be enough for the visitors to clinch promotion.
