Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Nurnberg and Magdeburg face each other at Max-Morlock-Stadion in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program. The start of the season has been a mixed bag for the Bavarians, with the team losing to Karlsruher, beating Schalke, while sharing the spoils with Darmstadt. Anyhow, home win should not be considered as Nurnberg’s injury list includes the likes of Mathenia, Serra, Valentini, Hofmann, Handwerker, Emreli, Goller, and Wenig.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games and seeing that Nurnberg are tough to beat at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The likes of Tobias Muller, Aleksa Marusic, Herbert Bockhorn, Baris Atik, and Robert Leipertz miss out with injuries for the visiting team, while Matej Maglica is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
