A Sports Betting Pick by Niko
Football; Germany: 2.Bundesliga
Rudolf Harbig Stadion – Dresden

Dynamo Dresden
Two wins on the bounce looked like they would seal safety for Dynamo Dresden, but last week’s 3-1 defeat against direct rivals Fortuna Düsseldorf complicated their position.
Now two points above the drop zone, Dynamo Dresden are pushed against the wall and must go for a win here, against a team that has nothing left to play for.
Overall form still favours Dynamo Dresden, who won 3 of their last 4 at home, where they tend to play fluid, attacking football.
A win here and a win next week against their direct relegation rivals, Eintracht Braunschweig, will definitely see them secure their 2.Bundesliga status, so we should expect a highly motivated performance here.
Kaiserslautern
Back-to-back defeats against lowly Holstein Kiel (3-0) and Eintracht Braunschweig (0-2) effectively ended even the tiniest promotion chances for Kaiserslautern.
They are now 7th in the 2.Bundesliga, 11 points behind the third spot with three games remaining, so it’s game over. That didn’t sit well with the club’s board, who are likely to sack their coach, Torsten Lieberknecht, if his team loses for a third time in a row.
Their away form has been awful, too. Kaiserslautern have lost four of the last six 2.Bundesliga trips.
The Betting Verdict
Even though on paper Kaiserslautern has the better team, Dynamo Dresden has played much better in recent weeks.
Kaiserslautern has nothing left to play for. The team atmosphere deflated after they lost their promotion hopes, which should be in Dynamo Dresden’s favour.
Dynamo Dresden must go for a win in their relegation battle; they won three of their last four at home, so I would go with them winning this game at good odds.
