Karlsruher vs Wehen Prediction & Betting tips
For the last time, the second division professionals have to get everything out of themselves at the weekend before the ball will rest until the end of January. On the first day of the second half of the season there will be a duel between Karlsruhe and Wiesbaden.
According to the odds, the home side are clearly the favorites in the clash between the two promoters, which is primarily due to the constellation in the table. The KSC currently ranks 13th, but is only four points ahead of the relegation relegation zone.
The kickers from the state capital of Hesse take the penultimate place in the classification, but could still climb to 16th place with a win on Friday and at the same time reduce the gap to the saving bank to one meter.
Contrary to the bookmakers’ assessment, we would classify the probability of a home win under the implied 54%. On the one hand, this is due to the fact that the Baden team only received a bitter 1: 5 swatter in front of their home backdrop last weekend and have otherwise been guilty of only three successes in eight games in front of their own fans.
On the other hand, the SVWW is no longer as disastrous as it was at the beginning of the season. Three of the last five matches were lost, but these were also the only three defeats when looking back at the most recent ten matches.
In this respect, we dare before the game Karlsruhe vs. Wiesbaden’s forecast that a bet on a point win for the Rehm elf is associated with more value than a bet on the three of the unsettled hosts.
Karlsruhe:
Professional footballers have to deal with pressure every day. The actors of Karlsruhe SC are also facing a special pressure situation on Friday evening. After an overall fairly carefree first round on the last day before the winter break, there is still a risk that the Baden team will have to report back in the relegation battle.
Should the Blues lose their home game against the penultimate SV Wehen-Wiesbaden, the lead over the Hessen would shrink to a meager three points.
In the event of a win, however, it would even be possible to improve to tenth place. The encounter against the co-climber, who won 5-2 in the game park last year, is accordingly significant.
Speaking of five goals against a home backdrop. Last Saturday, too, the KSC had a big smack in front of its own fans. The third division champions went swimming at home against SpVgg Greuther Fürth with 1: 5 in 2018/19. Again and again the defensive, which was too slow, could be dipped into the interface with simple balls, so that the audience was horrified by the helplessness that could hardly be hidden.
Defense coach Alois Schwartz is by far the largest construction site. If the 29 goals scored can be seen offensive very well, there are currently no second division teams who conceded more goals than the Karlsruhe team. 35 goals received correspond to an average of more than two per game.
Not least because of this, we would be cautious on Friday between Karlsruhe and Wiesbaden with a forecast of the home win. To make matters worse, the table 13th only won one of the last eleven league games and delivered anything but constant at home with only three wins in eight matches.
Against this background and the fact that keeper Uphoff only once kept his clean slate throughout the season, the odds for the fifth win of the season of the former first division club in the promotion duel Karlsruhe against Wiesbaden contain no value.
It seems more likely that last year’s third division club, with the pressure in the back and the uncertainty from the 1: 5 swatter from last Saturday, has to accept another setback in the form of a loss of points. At least in terms of personnel, Alois Schwartz can draw on unlimited resources. He has no significant failures to complain about.
Wiesbaden:
What Rouwen Hennings is for Fortuna Düsseldorf, Wout Weghorst for VfL Wolfsburg or Robert Lewandowksi for FC Bayern Munich is Manuel Schäffler for SV Wehen-Wiesbaden: the offensive life insurance.
Twelve of the 20 goals scored so far are due to the massive center forward, who was trained at TSV 1860 Munich and once even played seven matches for the U20 national team. The relegation candidate’s main attacker will be missing next Friday due to a ban.
This in turn calls his replacement Daniel-Kofi Kyereh on the scene. The 23-year-old has only scored three goals this season, but the German-Ghanaian has fond memories of the wildlife park. Last year, the fast striker scored three in the 5-2 success of the Hessen team in Karlsruhe. A good omen for the second division duel on match day 18?
Although the Taunussteiners still rank in the relegation zone in the table, the situation in the state capital of Hesse is by no means hopeless. The gap to the saving bank (15th place) is only four points. In addition, the team of coach Rüdiger Rehm can look back on some good results in the first half of the season.
If the SVWW manages to preserve the performance shown in phases over a longer period of time, then the relegation, which is logically exposed as the primary goal, definitely seems possible. The Hessians were able to convince not only once, especially abroad.
Wehen-Wiesbaden collected more points in the distance than at home, scored more goals and conceded fewer goals. Above all, the 13 goals conceded in opposing stadiums are particularly striking compared to 22 goals received in front of their own fans. The climber presents himself far more stable, grippier and more dangerous away.
For this reason, we venture a tip on the double chance X / 2 between Karlsruhe and Wiesbaden. The recent setback at 1: 3 in St. Pauli does not change this, especially since the two goals for 1: 2 and 1: 3 did not appear in the final phase from the perspective of the Rehm-Elf. In the eighth appearance this season it was the fourth loss; for the first time this was more than one goal difference.
In addition to Manuel Schäffler, who has to miss a game after the fifth yellow card, Albrecht, Bartels, Lyska, Schönfeld, Schwadorf, Tietz and Wachs are injured. However, all players have been missing for some time, so that the personnel situation with the exception of the top scorer remains unchanged compared to the previous weeks.
