Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Holstein Kiel will be aiming to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Schalke 04 when they face Karlsruher in the 2. Bundesliga round 6. Kiel defended well in the last league match and they will continue relying on their solid defence in the upcoming fixtures. Bearing any fresh injury worries, boss Marcel Rapp is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated die Knappen at the weekend.
Christian Eichner’s troops, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Nurnberg. Karlsruher have yet to record a win on the road this season and given Holstein Kiel’s signs of improvement, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Duo Ben Farhat – Sihlaroglu remains in the recovery room, while defender Marc Niclas Duhring faces race against the clock to be fit for Sunday’s showdown.
