Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Holstein and Hannover fans may have some reason for celebration ahead as their sides go head-to-head, with our prediction of both teams to score looking a far more convincing pick than any bet on the outright winner. The two sides are more than capable of finding the net, as is borne out by the stats and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookmakers odds are not finding much to pick between the sides, as striking power and defensive options suggest each team is capable of both scoring and conceding. Both teams to score is the tip of the day here.
