Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
All eyes will be on Max-Morlock-Stadion when Nurnberg and Werder Bremen face each other in the 2. Bundesliga round 13. Following back-to-back wins over Dynamo Dresden and Heidenheim, Nurnberg suffered a 2-0 loss to Darmstadt in their last league match, with the team dropping to fifth position in the standings. The Bavarians aim to regain their spot in top three, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. All Tom Krauss, Felix Lohkemper, Florian Hubner, Paul-Philipp Besong, and Pascal Kopke are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Die Werderaner, on the other hand, have been playing below expectations in the first half of the season, but this game could be the turning point for the visiting team. Since both sides will go for a win in Friday’s clash, both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Nick Woltemade, Christian Gross, Omer Toprak, and Thore Jacobsen are out of contention with injuries for the away side.
