Nurnberg hosts Hansa Rostock in round 7 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, September 17th at Max-Morlock-Stadion (Nuremberg)
Nurnberg is one of the most popular football projects in the country. Truth be told, all successes of this club are in the distant past. Now the Legends are regulars in Bundesliga 2, who limited themselves to a spot outside the top 10 in the previous season, finishing in 11th position. So far, Robert Klaus's charges have been doing much better: they have not lost even once in six games played. However, their matches ended in a draw four times. Nurnberg didn’t manage to beat Jahn Regensburg away on Sunday. Moreover, the hosts responded to the visitors' early goal twice, and the Club avoided defeat only thanks to Nikola Dovedan, who scored in the 79th minute (2-2).

Hansa was successful at the level of the GDR. In 1991, the Sailors even won the champion’s title. And in united Germany, the representative of Rostock spent many years in the Bundesliga at the turn of the century. The club didn’t achieve any special success, but it was ranked 6th twice. But having gained another promotion to the elite in the 2007/2008 season, Hansa Rostock immediately fell into the 2nd and then into the 3rd division, where it had played since 2012. And only in the previous season, Hansa took second place and returned to a half-forgotten level. As for newcomers, Jens Hartel's charges look good. They have already scored seven points and even managed to win twice. Their second victory at a new level took place last Sunday. Darmstadt almost snatched a draw, but Frode scored a winning goal after a pass from Omladic in the 86th minute. Verhoek also scored another goal, and now the Dutchman has three goals scored in his assets.
After 2009, these teams played only once in the national cup, and it happened in 2018. Nurnberg escaped the away defeat in the 90th minute, then the clubs exchanged goals in extra time, and, finally, the visitors won on penalties. Now Nurnberg will play at home, and its players are clearly more experienced. These trump cards need to be used, so we bet on the victory of the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Nurnberg to win
