Command Analysis

Nuernberg

Current form
Nuremberg had no real opportunity to set too ambitious goals for itself, but surely the Bavarians, at least, planned to impose a struggle on competitors for the third place. In general, Miroslav Klose's team is spending the season quite well and spent some time near the leaders, but could not stand the competition. At the moment, Nuremberg is on the 10th line in the table with 45 points and is 13 points away from the transition zone, the third Elversberg is ahead by seven points and such a handicap cannot be won back.
Disqualifications and injuries
Castrop and Tsimas are injured. Soares is disqualified.
Interesting betting trends
- Nuremberg has not won in the last three matches – two defeats and a draw.
- Nuremberg has scored in the last four matches.
Approximate line–up: Reichert – Drexler, Knoche, Gruber - Janisch, Yander, Lubash, Yilmaz, Yustvan – Emreli, Antiste.

FC Koeln

Current form
By the start of the season, Cologne was approaching the status of the main contender for a direct ticket to the Bundesliga and had a significant advantage over its opponents in terms of player selection. The goats made a number of mistakes in the first round, but on the whole they matched their status and held on to the lead, managing to maintain their form in the second round and avoid serious failures. However, Gerhard Struber's team has made several mistakes and has not yet guaranteed itself anything. Cologne is second in the table with 55 points, but at the same time it is only three points ahead of fourth Paderborn, the whole fight is still ahead.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gazibegovic and Kilian are injured.
Interesting betting trends
- In the last five matches, Cologne has scored just one win.
- Cologne have conceded in the last eight matches.
Approximate line–up: Schwabe – Tiloeman, Hubers, Heinz, Finkgrafe - Lubicic, Martel, Kainz – Waldschmidt, Lemperle, Downs.

1.35Tip and bets
Cologne lost points in recent matches and jeopardized their ticket to the Bundesliga – obviously, the guests will not be motivated today. Nuremberg no longer has a real chance to compete for the third place and, in general, does not conduct the finishing segment in the best way, the guests are considered favorites for a reason. It makes sense to give preference to goats today - Cologne has a significant advantage in class and is deprived of the right to make mistakes, the guests will surely take their three points confidently.
We believe that the hosts have no chance. The betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1) for Cologne. This bet is offered with odds of 1.99
Bet on the total
Cologne will definitely be determined to win today and will certainly be aggressive in front from the very first minutes. Nuremberg is unlikely to be able to play reliably defensively against such an opponent, and the Bavarians regularly fail defensively against much less high-profile opponents. At the same time, Miroslav Klose's players play openly on their own field and do not have serious pressure for the result – in such a duel it makes sense to count on a scoring extravaganza.
The bet is a total of more than three goals. This bet is offered for 1.75
Betting on corners
Cologne is the favorite and will come for the victory – the goats will obviously spend the entire 90 minutes at the opponent's goal and will win confidently from the corners.
The bet is Cologne's victory on the corners. This bet is offered for 1.65
