MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: AWAY WIN
Darmstadt beat Hannover 2-1 Monday night for their third win in five league matches. Dimitrios Grammozis team has now lost just one of their last seven league matches to get back to the middle of the league table after dipping into the bottom three. Darmstadt can be happy they get to stay home for three of their final four league matches before the winter break, even if they are hosting the top three teams in the league in those home matches.
Bielefeld managed just one point at home against Sandhausen, which dropped them from their perch atop the league table. Uwe Neuhaus’s upstart squad is level on points with first-place Hamburg, but trail by four in goal-differential. Bielefeld remains the 2. Bundesliga’s lone unbeaten road team in the league, and will have three more road trips before the winter break to see whether that streak can continue.
Darmstadt’s defense may prove to be a tough test for the Bielefeld attack, having allowed just six goals in their six home league matches. Fortunately for Bielefeld, they get things done on both ends of the pitch, having scored 20 goals while conceding just seven on the road in the league. Go with Bielefeld’s unbeaten streak until it ends.
SECOND PREDICTION: HILO - LOW
Both of these clubs are proud of their defensive capabilities, which should be on full display on Sunday.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Bielefeld beat Darmstadt twice last season, 2-1 in Darmstadt and 1-0 at Bielefeld, and are on a three-match winning streak in the series.
