Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Magdeburg play host to Nurnberg at their MDCC-Arena in the 2. Bundesliga round 25. Magdeburg are safe for now as they are seven points clear of the relegation zone, but they can’t afford any complacency in the remainder of the season. Defender Herbert Bockhorn is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while all Connor Krempicki, Jonah Fabisch, Bryan Teixeira, and Julian Pollersbeck remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Bavarians desperately needed a win against Eintracht Braunschweig and they managed to get one, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. As both sides would be happy with one point from Saturday’s encounter, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Jannik Hofmann, Florian Hubner, Felix Lohkemper, Daichl Hayashi, Marcel Wenig, and James Lawrence are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.

FC Nurnberg are a German club which was founded back in May, 1900. Der Ruhmreiche play their home games at Max-Morlock-Stadion, which was both built and opened in 1928.
