Best Tip: Both teams to score

We have a pair of strong, attacking sides going head-to-head and, as such, we are predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 minutes. Can respective bosses Lukas Kwasniok or Ole Werner deliver a defensive plan that will shut out the opposition? Recent form stats and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookmakers, suggest that's unlikely.
