THE PREDICTION

After a good run in October and November, Paderborn’s form has slumped in recent weeks. They did at least end a three-match losing streak with a 2-2 draw at home to Eintracht Braunschweig in midweek, although they will see it as two points dropped having led 2-0. A lack of goals has been their main issue, particularly on their travels, where they have found the net just five times (and four of them came in one match). As well as that, they have been heavily reliant on attacking duo Chris Fuhrich and Dennis Srbeny, who have accounted for 11 of the team’s 16 goals. Osnabruck, meanwhile, have scored no more than once in eight of their 12 league matches this term, so Under 2.5 Goals looks a good bet here.
