Combo Bets
Possible starting line up: R.Schafer - Chandler, Wollscheid, Wolf, Pinola - Simons - Hegeler, Ekici, Cohen, Eigler – Schieber. Nurnberg is in excellent form as they won the last three matches against Stuttgart, Bayer Leverkusen and Hamburger. Coach Hecking is doing an excellent job and now Nurnberg is currently ninth with 32 points. They are out of relegation battle, but few more victories could promote them as UEFA Europe League place. For this game coach Hecking will be without injured Judt, Frantz, Gundogan and Bunjaku. However, it won`t be a big problem according to me.
No goal in 2011
Possible starting line up: Nikolov - Franz, Vasoski, Russ, Tzavellas - Schwegler - Ochs, Meier, Kohler, Halil Altintop – Gekas. Eintracht Frankfurt is in terrible form at the moment. In fact, they failed to score in all five games played in 2011. Just one goalless draw against Freiburg two weeks ago put Eintracht in difficult position. They are just four points out of relegation zone and few more bad results will make the situation even worse. For this game coach Skibbe will be without four injured players: Jung, Caio, Clark, Chris and Bajramovic.
Low scoring game
I don`t expect many goals at Frankenstadion in Nurnberg. Three of the last four matches of Nurnberg ended with Under 2.5 goals. And Frankfurt is even better (or worse), four of the last five matches ended with Under 2.5 goals. The last three mutual games between Nurnberg and Frankfurt ended with Under 2.5 goals all. The last match played this season in Frankfurt ended with home victory of 2:0 (25.09.2010). Both games last season also ended with Under, both with the final score 1:1 (on 23.01.2010 and 15.08.2009). I think this game will be no exception at all. The main reason is Frankfurt. They are in poor scoring form, they failed to score a single goal in the last five matches. Because of that I am expecting maximum two goals here.
