Jahn Regensburg hosts Erzgebirge Aue in round 8 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, September 24th at Jahnstadion Regensburg (Regensburg)
After returning to Bundesliga 2 in 2017, Jahn Regensburg was able to immediately jump to 5th place. After that, there was a slow but constant decline until the team slipped to 14th position in 2021. But Mersad Selimbegovic remained in the post of head coach. And now he justifies such trust. The Red Shorts scored 14 points in seven matches, and Max Besuschkow, who has already scored three times, became one of the best players. On the other hand, after four wins in a row, Regensburg lost 0-2 to St. Pauli at the end of August. And both September matches ended in draws: 2-2 with Nurnberg and 1-1 with Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Erzgebirge Aue finished 12th in the previous season. Obviously, the Violets wanted more, and this task was set in front of Aleksey Shpilevsky in the summer. The young Belarusian was never able to become a footballer due to injury, but he worked a lot in Germany. In transit through Dynamo Brest, he got to Kairat and was able to make it the champion of Kazakhstan, interrupting the long-term dominance of Astana. As a result, the 33-year-old specialist went to the West again but failed at Erzgebirge Aue. His team left the cup (a 2-1 defeat to Ingolstadt away) and scored only three points in seven rounds. And the Violets started with three consecutive draws against Nurnberg, St. Pauli, and Schalke. But then a streak of defeats began. When it reached 4 matches in a row, the young specialist was fired. Of course, this resignation should work as a certain shake-up of the team. But will this really happen?
Erzgebirge had not lost to Regensburg in eight matches in a row. But last season turned out to be more successful for the Red Shorts, who first won away and then was close to success at home but conceded an equalizing goal in the 85th minute. Jahn Regensburg is still taking a high place, but it is due to a powerful start, which did not have the same continuation. Yes, an outsider is coming now, but Erzgebirge's coach is being changed. Therefore, we'd better focus on neutral Under 3.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored
