Considering that Hannover is better ranked on the table, it is clear that Wolfsburg has failed this season and Hannover is very good. And that difference is not small, because the host of this duel has seven points more and Hannover has not lost nay matches in the first two rounds of the second part of the season, and their effect is victory and a defeat. Wolfsburg, on the other hand is without a win and after the draw, they were defeated in the last round, but this team is still present in the Cup, from which they eliminated Hannover by winning with 1-0. In their first championship duel it was 1-1.
Hannover continued playing good and four points from two rounds of the second part of the championship have further strengthened their position in the middle of the table, but also left hope they might also be fighting for European positions. First they after the break, defeated Mainz after they were losing twice in that match, while they in the last round played a draw with Schalke in the last round and this was a well-deserved win. They were also losing in that match, but they did not give up and they waited for their chance, which turned into a finish of the match.
The scorer of the equalizing goal was Fullkrug who was also great in duel against Mainz when he has scored three goals for the turn and win, and now he has scored one. Tschauner has returned on the goal in Gelsenkirchen instead of Esser, while Bakalorz, who was replaced by Fossum, finished on the bench. Now coach Breitenreiter has been subjected to one change due to the suspension of Korba, so Elez will be on the center-back position.
Probable lineups Hannover 96: Tschauner – Elez, S.Sane, Anton – Sorg, Ostrzolek – Schwegler, Fossum – Klaus, Bebou – Fullkrug
The agony continues for Wolfsburg at the start of the second part of the championship and they have made a draw and a win, so now the series when the championship is in question, extended to five games. Three draws in this series slightly improve the picture, however, as long as the relegation zone is only four points difference, they cannot be calm in the ranks of Wolfsburg. It is interesting that they managed to play a draw with Leipzig and Borussia in Dortmund, and they lost to the last Cologne and in the last round on their field from Eintracht.
They successfully defended themselves at the start of the second half in Dortmund and that duel ended with no goals, while they were against Eintrachta losing from the middle of the first half with 2-0. Just one minute after they reduced the gap in the second half, Dimata got a red card and they received another goal in the finish. Didavy was absent in the last round and Dimata was his replacement, while we now expect two changes on the center-back positions and Knoche and Brum from the first minute, Gerhardt in midfield instead of the suspended Guilavogu, and Steffen, instead of the suspended Dimata.
Probable lineups VfL Wolfsburg: Casteels – Verhaegh, Knoche, Bruma, Tisserand – Gerhardt, Arnold – Steffen, Didavi, Malli – Origi
Hannover is playing relieved and there were a lot of goals in their matches lately and we are expecting something similar now. Wolfsburg needs one win to break the negative series and they should play open and try to score as many goals as possible.
Pick: both teams to score
