Best Tip: Both teams to score

We have a pair of effective, attacking sides going head-to-head and, as such, we're predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 mins. Can respective bosses Uwe Rösler or Christian Titz mastermind a defensive masterclass to scupper our tip? Recent form stats and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookies, suggest that's unlikely.
