Hannover hosts Hansa Rostock in round 2 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Saturday, July 31st at HDI-Arena (Hannover)
Hannover is still associated with the team that is fighting for the European cups. Quite recently, the Reds made it to the knockout rounds of the Europa League. But most of the last seasons had to be spent in Bundesliga 2. Moreover, the club fought for promotion at first, but it failed last season and took only 13th place. However, the Reds broke away from the zone of play-out matches by a comfortable nine points. But it was obvious that these were not the results that the management and fans were expecting. Not surprisingly, the bosses changed the coach — in the summer, Hannover was headed by Jan Zimmermann. But even under his management, there were weak results at the training camp (only one victory in six matches). And the championship began with a draw, albeit away against Werder Bremen. Beyond that, the Reds managed to win back after an own goal.

Hansa Rostock was one of the best teams of the late times of East Germany. And in the 90s, the Sailors climbed to a high 6th place several times. But in the 21st century, the representative of Rostock was mainly going through extremely difficult times. But taking 2nd place in the third division in the previous season, Hansa managed to win the right to return to the second tier. Of course, it will be much more difficult here. And this became clear from the very first match. A week ago, Hansa hosted Karlsruher. And the Sailors lost without the slightest struggle. Kobald and Hoffmann scored in the 42nd and 44th minutes, respectively. It seemed that Verhoek returned the intrigue with his goal at the beginning of the second half. But the hosts lost 1-3 in the end. A very difficult calendar is ahead, and it’s far from certain that Hansa will earn some points in the next few rounds.
The clubs have not met at the official level since the 2007/2008 season, when Hannover won both matches with the same 3-0 score. After that, there was only a friendly match in the summer before last, in which the audience did not see goals. Now the hosts look stronger than their modest opponents. We recommend betting on the long-awaited victory of Hannover.
Prediction for the match: Hannover to win
