SV Elversberg
There are teams that work hard, shy away from the spotlight, and are slowly gaining confidence (and fans along the way). SV Elversberg is such a side.
After narrowly missing out on Bundesliga promotion through playoff matches last season, SV Elversberg are going even harder this season. They spend the international break at the top of 2.Bundesliga, impressively winning six of their eight games so far, drawing once and losing only once.
Many point to their sporting director, Nils-Ole Book, as the creator of this successful team. He was recently approached by Borussia Monchengladbach for the sporting director job there, but he rejected them and stayed with the club. That shows how devoted he is to the project, which draws attention from many sides.
Prior to the international break, SV Elversberg demolished Magdeburg 0-4 away, their third straight 2.Bundesliga victory. It was also their third clean sheet win in the last five games.
SV Elversberg’s rock-solid defense has only allowed six goals this season, currently the second-best defensive record in the league.
Greuther Furth
Greuther Furth’s games are like the lottery this season. Ups and downs all the time, never connecting anything in a row, wildly different display from one week to another.
Greuther Furth have lost three, won twice, and drawn once in their most recent six games. Interestingly, each of their last two wins was followed by a defeat in the next round.
In their last game before the international break, Greuther Furth played a 2-2 home draw against favorites Hannover 96, a result that was good for them.
At away stadiums, Greuther Furth won twice and lost twice in four games.
The Betting Verdict
SV Elversberg faced Greuther Furth four times across the past two seasons and never lost a game against them. They won twice and drew twice, including a 2-0 home win in Elversberg in their last match last February.
SV Elversberg is the more consistent side, currently 2.Bundesliga leaders, and I believe they will show another good display and beat mediocre Greuther Furth.
