Nürnberg

Nürnberg have made a strong start to their 2.Bundesliga season and sit second with 21 points from 10 matches. They have scored 24 goals, which is the second-best attacking record in the division. Their home record is also encouraging, with three wins, one draw and just one defeat.

They lost 0-1 at home to Kaiserslautern in their latest home game, but responded with a 1-3 away win against St. Pauli last week. Their DFB Cup run ended with a 5-2 defeat away to Bayer Leverkusen, although that was a difficult assignment against Bundesliga opposition.

The attacking numbers are a real positive. Nürnberg have the quality to trouble most teams at this level, and they should find opportunities against a rather weak SV Darmstadt 98 defence that has conceded 19 goals in 10 league games.

SV Darmstadt 98

SV Darmstadt 98 are having a difficult campaign and currently sit third from the bottom in the 2.Bundesliga with only nine points. They have managed just two 2.Bundesliga wins in 10 matches and scored nine goals. That lack of attacking output is a major concern ahead of a trip to one of the division's most productive teams.

Their recent results have offered little encouragement. SV Darmstadt 98 is winless in three straight matches. They drew 1-1 with Magdeburg last weekend, while their previous league away trips included a 4-0 defeat at Karlsruher SC and a 5-1 loss at Wolfsburg.

SV Darmstadt 98 need a much better attacking display if they want to take anything from this game. Their away form and limited goal output make that a difficult task.

The Betting Verdict

I like Nürnberg here. They have been one of the 2.Bundesliga’s best sides in the division, score plenty of goals and have a solid home record.

SV Darmstadt 98 are struggling at both ends, especially away from home. They suffered 4 away defeats in their four league trips so far.

I see Nürnberg having too much quality and backing them to take all three points. The odds are around 1.70 for the home win, which is still attractive for a side sitting second against a team down in 16th, and I expect the home advantage to count.

The Pick :

Nürnberg 2-0 SV Darmstadt 98
