Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner here, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Rostock and Karlsruher will score at least a couple of goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Mersad Selimbegovic or Christian Eichner has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.11 equating to approximately a 79% probability.

An away win looks like the most likely outcome in the win/draw/win market, with our predictive algorithm suggesting there’s a 46% chance of Karlsruher coming away with a win.
