Erzgebirge Aue hosts St. Pauli in round 2 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Sunday, July 1st at Sparkassen-Erzgebirgsstadion (Aue)
Erzgebirge Aue made a very unexpected decision. The Violets got a new head coach, and it’s a fairly common situation for the offseason. But the post was taken by a 33-year-old Belarusian Shpilevsky. Alexey is not a stranger to Germany. He played in the youth team of Stuttgart and was considered a promising midfielder, but an early serious back injury put an end to his playing career. After working a little in the structure of the Swabians and RB Leipzig, the coach moved to Kairat in transit through Dynamo Brest and immediately won silver medals in Kazakhstan. And in 2020, his team won the champion’s title, outranking Astana and Tobol. The Belarusian started his work in a new place successfully as well, as his new charge gained a goalless draw in Nurnberg.

St. Pauli got into the elite division relatively recently but predictably spent only one season there (2010/2011). After that, there were several chances to repeat the success, but the maximum was the 4th place. But in the 2020/2021 season, the club rounded out only the top ten of the division. All the more unexpectedly, this time Timo Schultz's charges started confidently (the ex-footballer, who ended his football career here, begins his second year as a head coach). Already in the 11th minute, Pakqrada was able to upset the goalkeeper of Holstein. As a result, the guests from Kiel were hammered with a 3-0 score. But even this success is undesirable to overestimate: the Pirates scored after all three shots on target, and the general statistics rather indicate that the Storks showed about the same game as the winner. St. Pauli was lucky in that match, but won't Fortuna (not a club from Dusseldorf, but the goddess of luck) come now to collect debts?
Until 2019, Erzgebirge Aue had an advantage in this pair for a long time. But recently St. Pauli has started to get better (two wins at home and away and a draw between them). The 1st round impressed the bookmakers so much that they consider St. Pauli as a favorite of the upcoming game. Still, we will insure the bet on the victory of the visitors with a zero.
Prediction for the match: St. Pauli to win with 0.0 handicap
