Prediction: 1-1
Regensburg
Paderborn and Regensburg square off against each other at Benteler Arena in a highly-anticipated 2. Bundesliga game. Paderborn quickly bounced back from a 2-1 loss to Holstein Kiel, with the team beating Fortuna Dusseldorf on the road before the international break. The triumph gave Lukas Kwasniok’s troops a confidence boost, but his men will have a mountain to climb in Friday’s football game.
All Leopold Zingerle, Marcel Correia, and Frederic Ananou are out of contention through injuries for the home team. Regensburg, on the other hand, are aim to overtake St. Pauli in top position, with the team eyeing their sixth win of the process. However, beating Paderborn at Benteler Arena is easier said than done, and that is the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on draw. All Scott Kennedy, Jann George, and David Otto miss out with injuries.
