MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: HANDICAP HAD AWAY WIN

After a run of four games without defeat (one win and three draws), Magdeburg come into this game following a heavy 4-1 loss against Magdeburg. They still sit five points above the relegation playoff with two games remaining and so their 2. Bundesliga status is all but guaranteed. Magdeburg haven’t won any of their last four home games (two losses, two draws).

After five league games without a win, Greuther Furth come into this game with two wins in their last four league games and are unbeaten in their last two with a win at Wehen before playing out a 3-3 draw against Braunschweig last weekend. Goal crazy, Greuther Furth have scored eight goals in their last two league games.

Greuther Furth lost six successive away league games but beat Wehen 5-3 last time out. They have the quality within their squad and are scoring for fun at the moment, and so I would expect them to go on and beat a struggling Magdeburg. Taking the away handicap looks like the best option.

HEAD TO HEAD

Greuther Furth are unbeaten in their last two against Magdeburg with a draw in the reverse fixture and a 3-0 win last season. But they lost their last away game 2-1 in September 2022.
