Magdeburg take on the visitors Hannover in the round 5 match of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, August 19th at MDCC-Arena (Magdeburg).
Magdeburg made it to Bundesliga 2. "Der Club" was very well quoted in German football, but - in the days of the GDR. And these are not only repeated victories in the domestic arena (7 cups and even 3 championships, however, all in the 1972-1975 period), but also in the international arena. In 1974, it turned out to be the winner in the Cup Winners' Cup! But, like many projects in the region, Magdeburg deflated dramatically after the reunification of the country. As a result, they reached the level of a semi-amateur league, so that 1st place in Bundesliga 3 was a full-fledged breakthrough. It is clear that it is difficult for a beginner. Yes, they managed to win against Karlsruhe, but at the same time there were defeats to Fortuna, Holstein and St. Pauli. And in the cup, nothing worked out against Eintracht (Frankfurt): 0-4 at home.

Hannover got off to a good start for their current level. The "Reds" some 10 years ago played in European competition and, most importantly, were in the middle of the Bundesliga 1. But now the team has the same status, but already "a floor below". Last season was 11th at all, that is, outside the top ten in this division. Stefan Leitl, who had previously worked with Greuther Furth, was called to fix this - he raised Greuther Furth to the country's top division, but could not, as expected, compete for the preservation of a place there. So far, we can’t believe that Hannover will also go up. Yes, it turned out to go further in the cup, but there was also an extremely simple opponent. But in the championship, with spectacular meetings, Hannover lost on the road to Kaiserslautern and Paderborn, and at home they first gave out a draw 2-2 with St. Pauli, and only in the last round they won over Jan Regensburg minimally.
The parties did not conduct official fights between themselves. But last year they organized a friendly match, in which Magdeburg won 4-2. Teams are unstable, but not hopeless. Hannover have been very spectacular in their last matches - we recommend betting on "over 2.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
