A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:Last Friday we witnessed how Schalke the favorite was beaten on Friday Night giving the handicap away, will we see the home team coming out winners once again?
Hannover have won their last two games back to back coming into this match, however it must be said that the two teams they managed to beat were second from the bottom and rock bottom in the division. Prior to those wins, they were beaten by the likes of Stuttgart and Bayern Muncih both by 2-1 scores and Bochum 2-0. Hannover has never drawn in their last five games since the 0-0 draw with Hamburger at home.
In their last four home games they have only managed one win beating Monchengladbach who have the worst away record at home. But in all honesty they were up against some tough sides, the likes of Bayern Munich where they were beaten 1-2 and leaders Schalke where they did well to earn a 1-1 draw.
Energie Cottbus on the other hand, comes into this match with just one draw in their last six games which was against Werder Bremen at home. Their last match was a 2-1 home win against Bayer Leverkusen who are chasing a UEFA Cup place as well. Cottbus’a last away game saw them get beaten 2-0 by leaders Schalke.
In their last four away games, Cottbus managed 3 wins and 1 defeat. They beaten sides such as Frankfurt 1-3, Hertha Berlin 0-1 and Dortmund 2-3. Their most recent defeat came against Schalke.
The last meeting between these two sides was in December when Hannover managed a 1-0 win. Hannover will be aiming to complete the double in this match.
Cheers and good luck,
