THE PREDICTION

Nurnberg have struggled at home this year, winning just two of their 12 Bundesliga 2 matches at the Max-Morlock-Stadion in 2020, but this is a game where they will be expected to get all three points. Promoted side Wurzburger Kickers are bottom of the table having lost all four of their away matches, conceding 10 goals and scoring three in the process. Overall they are the joint lowest scorers in the division, whereas Nurnberg are the joint second-highest, so that superior firepower should give the hosts the edge, and maybe even with a clean sheet into the bargain.
