THE PREDICTION
Nurnberg have won seven of the 11 meetings between these two sides in all competitions and they have won three of their last five games, with the other two ending in defeat against two of the current top three. At the same time, Erzgebirge Aue travel to Bavaria with confidence following a 4-1 win at home to Karlsruher SC in midweek, where strike duo Pascal Testroet and Florian Kruger continued their good goalscoring form. Since there is no clear favourite here and Nurnberg have not managed a clean sheet at home since September, Both Teams to Score is worth a punt.
