Cottbus will be aiming to put their disappointing 3-0 defeat to Arminia Bielefeld behind them and return to winning ways on home soil. The hosts endured a frustrating attacking display in that game, registering zero shots on target and just 0.56 xG. Their overall numbers are considerably stronger, though, with Cottbus winning 50% of their last 10 matches and averaging 1.60 goals per game. They have been particularly productive at home, scoring 2.40 goals per match across their last five home outings. Forward Erik Engelhardt remains sidelined.
Greuther Furth, meanwhile, also arrive after a high-scoring defeat, going down 4-2 to Nurnberg. Felix Klaus was a rare bright spot for the visitors, finding the net twice, and he will be the main attacking threat once again. Furth's away form is a major concern, with the side failing to win any of their last four road games and collecting just one point. The Cloverleaves have also conceded in each of those matches. Benjamin Zank remains in the treatment room as the visitors look to avoid another defensive collapse.
Cottbus have won 60% of their last five home matches, while Furth are winless in four away. Therefore, Home Win should be considering, alonside Cottbus Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (Cottbus' home games average 4.60 goals, while 75% of Furth's away matches have seen both teams score).
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Saturday 29 August 2026 at 12:00.
