THE PREDICTION
Both Hansa Rostock and Hannover 96 sit level on 20 points and with both looking nervously over their shoulders, this is a crucial match. The hosts are winless in their last five 2. Bundesliga fixtures, however they face a side dogged by a Covid-19 outbreak which leaves them extremely short on numbers. This shouldn’t take away the fact that an extremely cagey affair is likely between the two sides with the ramifications of defeat here for either team absolutely huge in terms of the relegation battle. Therefore, expect a contest short of clear goalscoring chances as the two look to prioritise a solid defensive set up rather than take any unnecessary risks, so backing under 2.5 goals is a smart move in this one.
