Hannover vs Osnabruck
Germany – 2. Bundesliga
Date: Monday, 1 February 2021
Kick-off at 19:30 UK/ 20:30 CET
Venue: HDI-Arena.
The Reds are placed eighth in the table, and have been impressive in the past several game weeks. They are also at home this Monday, and here they have been a force to contend with this whole season.
The team has consistently scored goals at this stadium, and barring some tough fixtures against some of the best teams in the league, they have been defensively sturdy as well at the HDI-Arena.
Meanwhile, the Lilac-Whites are a fairly new team to the 2.Bundesliga, and they are also on a long losing run at present. They have been letting in goals in huge numbers lately, and they have not had much success on the road this whole season.
Moreover, Kenan Kocak’s men also have a great h2h record against this rival over the years, and especially so at this venue.
For the reasons, expect Hannover to post a win this Monday at the HDI Arena.
Marco Grote’s men are on a four-game losing run, and had lost eight of their previous ten overall fixtures. Note that they have also conceded a total of ten goals from their preceding four matches.
Going on, they were also winless in 18 of their preceding 25 matches, and had let in a total of five goals from the latest road game alone.
On the other hand, their counterparts had won three of their former five matches, and had scored a total of 13 goals in the process.
Importantly, Kocak’s men had won 11 of their last 15 home appearances, and had also scored two or more goals in 12 of their past 15 fixtures here.
Taking into account these observations, expect a Hannover win this Monday.
