Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Arminia and Karlsruher supporters 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 stronger pick than any bet on the WDW market. The two clubs 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, a sign of the qualities (or lack of) each side possesses. Both teams to score is the tip of the day here.
