Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Hannover and Energie Cottbus supporters should get a chance to celebrate as their teams go head-to-head, with KickOff's prediction of both teams to score looking a far stronger pick than any bet on the WDW market. The two sides are more than capable of finding the net, as is borne out by the statistics and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookies odds are not finding real separation between the sides, with equal threat among their respective squads. Both teams to score is the way to go here.

An away win looks like the most likely outcome in the win/draw/win market, with our predictive algorithm suggesting there’s a 45% chance of Hannover coming away with a win.
