Magdeburg take on the visitors Nurnberg in the round 32 match of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, May 12th at MDCC-Arena (Magdeburg).
Magdeburg have practically guaranteed its place in the second division of German football for the upcoming season. Under the guidance of Christian Titz, they have accumulated 39 points and currently hold the 11th position in the overall team standings. In their last five matches, Magdeburg secured victories against Eintracht Braunschweig (1-2) and Hamburg (3-2), suffered a defeat against Sandhausen (1-2), and drew against Regensburg (2-2) and Heidenheim (0-0). In the previous round, Magdeburg played as visitors in Heidenheim and managed to cause a stumble for one of the league leaders. Despite the absence of goals, the match was very intense, especially in the second half. Both teams created numerous scoring opportunities and could have found the back of the net multiple times (especially Heidenheim), but their finishing let them down. Magdeburg's goalkeeper, Dominik Reimann, had an outstanding performance and was the standout player of the match. At home, Magdeburg has achieved five victories, drawn three times, and suffered seven defeats this season, with a goal difference of 17 scored and 20 conceded. It's worth noting that they have only lost twice in their last seven home matches.

Nurnberg are actively fighting to avoid relegation and currently sits in 14th place with 34 points. They have a four-point gap separating them from the relegation playoff zone. In their last five matches in the 2. Bundesliga, the team has recorded one victory, two draws, and two defeats. In the previous round, under Dieter Hecking's guidance, Nurnberg had an excellent opportunity to secure a victory and distance themselves from the danger zone when facing Kaiserslautern at home. However, they managed to concede three goals against a team that hadn't scored away from home in six games. Ultimately, Nurnberg responded with three goals of their own, and the match ended in a 3-3 draw. Now, Nurnberg face a tough away game against Magdeburg, as their performances on the road have been less than impressive. In fifteen away matches, the "Red and Blacks" have only secured two victories, four draws, and suffered nine defeats. Additionally, they have a negative goal difference of 11 scored and 30 conceded.
Magdeburg need a couple more points to completely secure their place in the second division, while Nürnberg is also highly motivated in this battle. However, Nürnberg's away performance is inferior to Magdeburg's home record. Therefore, considering the current form of the teams and the respective performances of Magdeburg at home and Nürnberg away, the best option here would be to bet on Magdeburg with a handicap (0) as the hosts. Even in the first round, Magdeburg managed to defeat their opponent away with a score of 1-2, and with the support of their home crowd, they are more than capable of doing it again. My prediction: Handicap (0) for Magdeburg.
Prediction for the match: Magdeburg to win with 0.0 handicap.
