SV Darmstadt 98
SV Darmstadt 98 showed another impressive performance last week, winning 0-3 away against Fortuna Düsseldorf. They scored all three goals in the second half, giving their head coach Florian Kohfeldt a good feeling they can fight for Bundesliga promotion this season.
SV Darmstadt 98 have won four of their six 2.Bundesliga games this season, drawing and losing once. They are a side that can press and attack with urgency, and even though their coach rotates players frequently, he prefers aggressive formations.
SV Darmstadt 98’s most recent three games all ended with 3+ goals, and this trend could continue in this game as well.
Speaking of their duels against Dynamo Dresden in recent years, SV Darmstadt 98 has gone unbeaten in six straight matches across competitions since 2019, winning five of them.
Their last game dates back a year ago, when these two met in the DFB Cup, with SV Darmstadt 98 winning 2-3 after extra time.
SV Darmstadt 98 has also not lost at home to Dynamo Dresden in all four of their duels so far, winning twice and drawing twice.
Dynamo Dresden
Dynamo Dresden had not had a good start to this season, winning only once in their first six 2.Bundesliga games.
However, they showed brave performances in their most recent two games against favorites SV Elversberg and Hannover 96, with both games ending in 2-2 draws.
From what I have noticed so far, Dynamo Dresden was more dangerous when on fast breaks and playing as underdogs, while they were extremely vulnerable when dealing with sustained pressure.
Another thing about their games so far is that they were mostly full of goals. There were three or more goals scored in five of their six 2.Bundesliga games this season.
The bad news from the last match is that their regular defensive midfielder, Vinko Sapina, received a red card for a bad start and is now suspended for two games.
The Betting Verdict
SV Darmstadt 98 played excellent football in their last two wins, and are now back at home, where they usually dictate tempo.
Dynamo Dresden is likely to adopt the same approach as in the past two weeks – sitting deeper and attacking on the counter. However, I doubt it will bring them points for a third straight time, considering that SV Darmstadt 98 plays an effective pressing game at home.
Back SV Darmstadt 98 to win the match at solid odds.
