Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Ingolstadt will look to build on a thrilling 5-0 win over Nurnberg when they take on Sandhausen on Matchday 22. Ingolstadt impressed in their last league match but they need to keep on raising their form if they are to secure the 2. Bundesliga survival. A man to watch in the home team will be Dennis Eckert, who impressed in the last league match (1 goal, 3 assists), while all Fatih Kaya, Tobias Schrock, and Caniggia Ginola Elva should miss out with injuries.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Aue and Karlsruher. Since Sandhausen are likely to go for a win in Sunday’s clash as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Nikolai Rehnen, Julius Biada, Tim Kister, and Rick Wulle should miss out with injuries for the away side.
