Holstein Kiel hosts St. Pauli in round 32 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, May 7th at Holstein-Stadion (Kiel)
Holstein Kiel made a lot of noise this season, but the fairy tale in the German Cup is over, as the club was destroyed by Dortmund Borussia in the semifinals (0-5). Now the Storks need to switch to the second Bundesliga, where they are ranked third, with two more games left. In theory, Holstein Kiel needs to fight for the second place, which is four points ahead, as this position guarantees a direct ticket to the elite. The third line will give the right to take part in the playoff matches, and then as luck would have it. In the last game, Holstein Kiel was able to beat Sandhausen (2-0), and that victory allowed the Storks to rise to the top three. But two competitors are only one point behind Holstein Kiel.

The Pirates of the League significantly improved their game at the end of the season and were able to win five matches out of six. Such a breakthrough allowed St. Pauli to rise to the seventh line, but there is no point in dreaming of promotion. The third line is six points ahead, and there are only three rounds left to play. In the last match, St. Pauli beat one of the leaders, Greuther Furth – (2-1), so we may say that the Pirates definitely have no fear of the favorites.
In the first head-to-head match of this season, the opponents could not determine the winner and tied with a score of 1-1. Statistics show that the opponents have exchanged goals in the last four official head-to-head meetings. Now these teams are approximately equal, so there is no obvious favorite in the upcoming game. The hosts need a victory, but St. Pauli is now on the drive, so it will definitely give a fight. The option with the exchange of goals scored looks promising.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score — yes
