Darmstadt vs Braunschweig Prediction & Betting tips
Both Darmstadt 98 and Eintracht Braunschweig experienced a change in the summer. The 2020/21 season started with a new coach and a changed squad. The start of both teams so far, which have only won two of their eight league games, shows that such a change takes time. Thus, at the start of the ninth game day, the 14th receives the current 16th of the current table of the 2nd Bundesliga.
In the run-up to the encounter between Darmstadt and Braunschweig, the odds of the bookmakers in the direction of the hosts, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows.
The guests from Lower Saxony certainly do not travel to Hesse without a chance. The Lions lost only one of their last three league games and collected seven of their eight points in the last five match days. The lilies, however, lost two times in a row with 0: 7 goals and go into this home game without any momentum. In any case, both teams have already conceded a lot of goals.
Against this background, it makes the most sense in our eyes to tip the game against Braunschweig at Darmstadt for a game with many goals.
Darmstadt :
After a rather meager first half of the 2019/20 season, SV Darmstadt 98 decided early on not to extend the expiring contract with Dimitrios Grammozis. Instead, Markus early was presented as the successor for the summer.
But then the Hessen played a phenomenal second half of the season, which actually made you want more. Only Arminia Bielefeld got more points than the lilies. Grammozis had to go anyway and the upheaval took its course.
After the 2: 3 opening defeat in Sandhausen, however, the blue-whites remained undefeated five times in a row and scored nine of 15 possible points. A clear upward trend, which has not been confirmed recently.
It was not until the SVD finally lost 4-0 at home to SC Paderborn before there was a crushing 3-0 defeat in Aue following the international break last Sunday. Two games, two defeats and terrifying 7-0 goals. Thus, the lilies slipped up to 14th place in the table and could theoretically even fall to a relegation place if they lost again to BTSV.
It would be all the more important to stop this downward trend with a home win. In this regard, it is positive that Nicolai Rapp can return to the starting line-up after being sent off against Paderborn and suspended in Aue. Even with him on the pitch there have been one or two goals conceded.
It is accordingly consistent to play the tip on a high-scoring game against Braunschweig at Darmstadt. After all, the Hessians had to deal with 18 goals in eight games. Only the bottom of the table, Würzburger Kickers, was even more vulnerable defensively after conceding 19 goals.
Braunschweig:
After the narrow rise as third in the 3rd division, Eintracht Braunschweig needed a break to survive one floor higher. In the coaching bench, Daniel Meyer took over for the outgoing Marco Antwerp. 14 players left the club. 13 were added.
Nevertheless, the Lions got off to a strong start in the 2020/21 season, when first division Hertha BSC were eliminated in the DFB Cup. In league operations, however, there was initially only one counter from the first three league games with only one self-scored goal.
This confirmed the fear that it would be a difficult season for Lower Saxony, in which relegation would be the only realistic goal.
“Darmstadt is also in a development process because the trainer has only been there since the summer. […] The lilies are of good quality in the team, they have good individual players who are very experienced and have been playing in the 2nd Bundesliga for several years. ”
At least on the past five match days, the offensive increased, which led to important points.
Two wins, one draw and two defeats is the latest record, which left seven points on the Lions’ account. Nevertheless, the BTSV only covers the relegation place with this yield. Gaining points from a direct neighbor in the table would be very important in many ways.
The problem is that with Niko Kijewski, Suleiman Abdullahi, Leon Bürger, Iba May and Nico Klaß, five injured players will not be in the squad, while Martin Kobylanski is still not an option for the starting eleven after a break of almost four weeks. Many options are therefore not available to Daniel Meyer.
