THE PREDICTION
St. Pauli’s 10 men managed to salvage a point in their relegation battle at Wurzburger Kickers in midweek, which nevertheless extended their winless run to 13 matches. Coach Timo Schultz has brought in a number of reinforcements in recent weeks, with loan signings Dejan Stojanovic and Omar Marmoush both expected to start on Saturday. Holstein Kiel lost at home to Osnabruck last weekend but before that they had won five on the spin, and Ole Werner’s men remain unbeaten on their travels this season. Moreover, they have only conceded three goals in those six away outings, and with St. Pauli failing to score in three of their last four at their Hamburg home, Win To Nil is worth a punt here.
