Darmstadt vs Holstein Kiel Prediction & Betting tips
While in these days a survey among passers-by, if there is a video proof in the 2. Bundesliga probably no majority answer with “yes”, result of such a survey could be deliberately manipulated, if we invite only fans of the SV Darmstadt 98 to the demoscopy , The supporters of the former Bundesliga club and logically the lilies themselves were the first victims of the re-introduction of the VAR (Video Assistant Referee) last week. In injury time of the away game at Hamburger SV referee Robert Hartmann decided in coordination with the Cologne cellar on penalty for the extinct Dino, who in person of Aaron Hunt did not ask twice and in the 98th minute marked the 1-1 final score. The two lost points the Grammozis Elf now wants to bring home on Sunday.
Before meeting Darmstadt against Kiel implying the odds of bookmakers a gossamer favorites role in favor of the hosts, the bottom line, a balanced match is expected. The KSV Holstein had to settle for the opening also with one point, but was clear especially in the second half against SV Sandhausen. Because the Hessians traditionally play a major role in defensive work and the guests from the far north with Andre Schubert prefer a slightly different style of play compared to previous years, we think it is very likely that the game will pick up speed as the game progresses. The logical consequence would be to venture a hint between Darmstadt and Kiel that more goals would be scored in the second round. The kick-off at Böllenfalltor takes place on Sunday at 14:30. Part of the new backstroke will then celebrate its premiere and ensure that the professionals are no longer looking solely at a construction site, but many fans.
Darmstadt:
Before the kick-off last weekend in Hamburg, those responsible at SV Darmstadt 98 did not really know where they stood. Although the big change did not happen in the summer, the different test match results did not provide any reliable information as to which spheres the former Bundesliga club will be able to push ahead in the upcoming season. However, what became clear in both the 0-1 against Vitesse Arnhem and the 1-1 draw against Werder Bremen and the narrow defeat against Feyenoord Rotterdam, is the fact that the fans of the lilies have no thoughts about missing mentality and a decaying fighters property to have to do. Under the direction of Dimitrios Grammozis, the Hessians are among the most uncomfortable and compact teams in the second division.
The promotion aspirant from Hamburg almost broke his teeth on the defensive line of the Darmstädter last week. Only a questionable foul in the penalty area allowed the Hanseatic League after a use of the VAR in the hectic final phase, the 1-1 equalizer. Previously, the blue-whites profited on the one hand from the lack of opportunity utilization of the home side as well as the own leading goal by the recently substitute Tim Skarke. The draw was undoubtedly deserved, although the frustration over two lost points on the side of the guests outweighed.
Accordingly high is the motivation before the first home game of the new season. Hope for a positive result on the second matchday makes, among other things, in the past season to the day posted home strength. In front of a home crowd, the 98er 2018/2019 scored more than twice as many points as in foreign countries.
After 34 match days, the lilies even made the third best home of the lower house. Interesting: 19 of the 25 hits in front of their own fans were scored after the break. Often standards or counterattacks led to success after the defensive (only 15 goals conceded) in the first 45 minutes was very stable. For the upcoming match between Darmstadt and Kiel we provide a similar forecast for the gameplay.
In terms of personnel, Grammozis, who was even briefly associated with other second division teams in the summer, can virtually draw on everything. With the exception of Felix Platte, all men are available. Hope-bearer in the offensive is Marvin Mehlem, who extended his contract in Darmstadt during the week and thus initially put a stop to all rumors of an imminent change in the Bundesliga.
Kiel:
Of course, if we already wrote two lost points at SV Darmstadt 98, this naturally also applies to Holstein Kiel. At home against SV Sandhausen, the North Germans had to be satisfied with a 1-1 and that although the charges of the new coach Andre Schubert especially in the second round put a real powerplay on the green. Emmanuel Iyoha (52 ‘), who came to the fjord from Aue in the summer, equalized shortly after the break before Serra, Lee and Co. lost the best shot at the potential victory in the closing stages.
For the second game in Darmstadt, the “storks” have made sure not to concede again an early goal. The 0: 1 against Sandhausen fell namely already in the fourth minute and threw all plans over the pile.
Because the concentration in the opening stages will automatically be higher this time and the coach will also warn its players against a repeated backlog, it is quite likely that the teams will neutralize in the first half over long stretches. For our Darmstadt vs. Germany. Kiel tip on a goal-rich second round would be a corresponding course definitely beneficial.
In addition, if we consider that the northern lights scored a third more goals after the break in the previous year and defensive more conceded goals after 45 minutes, are also given a statistical basis to the Darmstadt vs.. Kiel to justify quotas near the double-brand. Bisseck and Dehm will not be available due to injury. It can be assumed that Schubert will start his team from the outset in 4-4-2 and offers Ignjovski as the only sixth in the lozenge. In the attack, the brawny Iyoha and Serra provide the necessary Torgefahr. Defensively, Hauke Wahl holds the shop together. The defender, recently voted captain by the team, equalized his counterpart Marvin Mehlem during the week, extending his contract in the handball center despite his interest in VfB Stuttgart.
