Greuther Fürth
Currently, half the teams are battling against 2.Bundesliga relegation, and Greuther Fürth are one of those. Even though they are second from the bottom on the table with three games remaining, the difference between their 17th spot and the 11th spot is only five points.
That gives Greuther Fürth hope of avoiding the drop, and they are likely to give extra effort. Even more so, this is a Franconian derby duel, where they should be pumped up at home.
Greuther Fürth lost 3 of their last 5 games overall, but have been a different story at home. They remained unbeaten in 4 of their last 5 home matches, winning 3 of them.
Two of those three wins were against promotion hopefuls SV Elversberg and SV Darmstadt 98, so Greuther Fürth shows they are a different animal when under relegation pressure.
Nürnberg
Nürnberg routinely won 1-0 against Magdeburg last weekend, climbing in the upper half of the 2.Bundesliga. They have no relegation worries and will finish the season peacefully in mid-table.
Last week’s game was Nürnberg’s fourth in a row with under 2.5 goals scored.
They are not an impressive away side, having recorded just one win in their last six games on the road (3 draws, 2 defeats).
The Betting Verdict
Nürnberg ensured safety last week, while Greuther Fürth are battling for survival.
Considering how impressive they played and beat big favourites at home recently, Greuther Fürth should edge this one.
The Pick :
Greuther Fürth 2-1 Nürnberg
