Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

While supporters of Darmstadt ready themselves for this clash, they may well be excited for what's in store. After studying the relevant stats and past head-to-head (H2H) fixture history, it looks as though over 2.5 goals will be a bet worth taking, as both teams know they way to goal and either could win. The prediction and odds are aligned: over 2.5 goals is the bet to go for.

When statistics and betting market point in the same direction, you know you're on to a good thing. With odds getting shorter on over 2.5 goals and drifting on under 2.5 goals, that's definitely the case here. We can expect fireworks as these teams go head to head.
