Duisburg vs Braunschweig Prediction & Betting tips
The football magazine “Kicker” selects an “eleven of the match day” every matchday – not only in the Bundesliga, but in all three German professional leagues. In League 3, the best players of the weekend are also recognized. Duisburg captain Moritz Stoppelkamp was represented five times in this exquisite selection, which is not particularly surprising as the captain of the leader.
In contrast, two other zebras – Petar Sliskovic and Ahmet Engin – were recently nominated for the first time. The latter was also chosen as the player of the match day after his gala appearance at Preußen Münster. With the 4: 1, the MSV was able to defend the place in the sun and on Friday has the great chance to keep a direct competitor at a distance with a win at home.
The lions from Braunschweig are guests in the Schauinsland-Reisen-Arena. The nickname of the troop from Lower Saxony does not necessarily apply at the moment, since Eintracht’s achievements were rather less snappy. With just one fetched counter in 2020, it is not surprising that the bookmakers between Duisburg and Braunschweig distributed the odds for a tip on the winner very clearly.
You don’t even get a double bet on successful home win bets. The favorite position is therefore very clear before the duel on Friday evening, which will kick off at 18:00 p.m.
Duisburg:
1st place, 43 points, 46 goals and five games unbeaten – the numbers at MSV Duisburg are impressive. Of course there are always many factors for such a success. Two very important ones should be emphasized. One is the brilliant offensive that scored the most goals in League 3.
In turn, captain Moritz Stoppelkamp plays an important role. The 33-year-old not only leads the team, but is also a regular scorer himself. 13 goals and another seven assists speak for themselves. The second important factor for the good interim balance is the home strength of the zebra.
25 out of 30 possible points are clearly the top value in League 3. The good balance should be expanded on Friday. With a threesome against Braunschweig, the distance could be increased to a direct pursuer and the big goal of “resurgence” would come a little closer again.
Personally, coach Torsten Lieberknecht has no reason to make changes in the starting eleven. The two double goal scorers from last weekend, Sliskovic and Engin, will definitely play again from the start. If the guests pick up on the performance from the Münster game, there is no reason not to believe in a bet on the odds of the home win between Duisburg and Braunschweig.
Braunschweig:
After three games without a win, Eintracht’s winter break came just in time. But the Lower Saxony seem to have taken their weak form with them into the new year. After the 1: 4 in Munich against the “blue lions”, there followed a meager 1-1 draw at home against the bottom of the table Jena.
The home side’s appearance was very weak and prompted those responsible to say clear words to the team. The goal of ascent will not be achieved if a U-turn is not achieved soon. The series of five games without a threesome must be interrupted as soon as possible.
On Friday, this will of course be extremely difficult for the league leaders from Duisburg. But coach Marco Antwerpen wants to use this as a great opportunity to knock the goat over. The trainer mentions the key to success as working consistently against the ball so that the opponent does not get into the pace game.
Leaders in particular are in demand, for whom there have been major discussions recently. Antwerp immediately nipped them in the bud and decidedly answered no to the question of whether there is a lack of leader types in Lower Saxony. Goalkeeper Jasmin Fejzic, Nico Kijewski, Benjamin Kessel and Marvin Pourie are some of the names that can be mentioned.
It is therefore difficult for these players to expect to be on the pitch on Friday evening. It remains to be seen whether there will be one or two surprises in the starting XI.
The only thing that is certain is that Manuel Schwenk and Leandro Putaro are still missing two players due to injury and there is also a question mark about the use of midfield star Danilo Wiebe because of knee problems. As a result, a forecast in the direction of the underdog is not exactly more likely between Duisburg and Braunschweig.
