Regensburg vs Nurnberg Prediction & Betting tips
The 2nd Bundesliga will finally start playing again on Friday evening! Many clubs have high ambitions, the race for promotion and the fight against relegation will be extremely exciting!
Before the duel between Regensburg and Nuremberg, the odds show that an even game can be expected. There are advantages on the part of the guests who want to have a say in the battle for promotion after a difficult season.
And Regensburg is generally considered a very unpleasant, difficult to play opponent. This should continue to be the case in the coming season. The start of the game on the 1st matchday in Regensburg is on Friday at 17:30 p.m.
Regensburg:
Jahn Regensburg has played a similar role every year since he was promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga. The team tries to stand compactly, to press aggressively and to leave little room for the opponent. To the front, danger should be ensured with fast switching play. This is also the route for the coming season.
In one of the last test matches against Augsburg, the team showed a good performance at 1-1, in the first competitive game of the season against Kaiserslautern, Regensburg had to take penalties. That underlined what the team is not so good at: dealing with possession.
Before the game Regensburg vs. Nuremberg’s betting odds show that the host will go into the game as a slight outsider.
Despite these odds, Regensburg is a dangerous opponent, precisely because you cannot expect the hosts against Nuremberg to dominate the game.
The first competitive game not only showed that there are still smaller construction sites, but also that the system issue was quickly resolved. Regensburg will stick to its 4-4-2 system. This formation isn’t incredibly sophisticated, but it allows the host a certain amount of flexibility.
Because then there is both solid protection on the defensive and a lot of forward potential. However: Regensburg could not play to zero for five games. That’s why before the game Regensburg vs. Nuremberg our tip that both teams will score at least one goal.
Regensburg coach Selimbegovic has to do without defender Beste and the two offensive players George and Heister. The squad can absorb these failures very well.
Nuremberg:
In Nuremberg there is one thing they want to avoid above all. Namely, that the 2019/20 season will repeat itself in some way. At that time, the Franks were worried about staying up in the league for a long time and had considerable problems even playing football consistently for 90 minutes.
But in the new season there are new conditions. Those in charge have done their homework and have been able to strengthen the top and breadth of the management team. And that in a very difficult transfer summer. Optimism is spreading!
The friendly matches for the new season already showed that Nuremberg is on a solid path. TSG Hoffenheim were defeated 5-2, and they kept up very well against FC Augsburg and FC Union. That is encouraging!
The team performance was also closed in the cup against RB Leipzig. Nürnberg lost 3-0 and had one or the other individual mistake too many in their own game, but at least the approach was solidly countered forward. The balance is not yet ideal, but there is still time to generate appropriate automatisms.
