St. Pauli hosts Nurnberg in round 26 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Sunday, May 17th at Millerntor-Stadion (Hamburg)
St. Pauli is currently on the 11th line in the Bundesliga 2 standings, and the team's position can be called borderline - the promotion zone is 14 points ahead, which, in theory, can be won back, but it will be hard for the team to do this. It is much more dangerous to get into the relegation zone, which the nominal hosts are ahead of only five points. In the first match after a forced vacation, the Corsairs of the league host a direct competitor in the struggle for survival in the person of Nurnberg. It is clear that the home team does not want to lose points, and there are all prerequisites for a successful performance because St. Pauli is doing very well on its pitch - the team lost only three out of 13 home games. I think that the hosts again will not have problems with achieving the result.

Last season, Nurnberg became the last team of the Bundesliga standings, having gained only 19 points in 34 rounds. 13 points separated today’s visitors from the rescue zone. Nurnberg’s problems are exacerbated in the current championship – the team is on the 14th line in the standings of the second strongest division in Germany, which, of course, cannot please fans of the Legend. Playing away, the club does not act very confidently - the team managed to win in only four out of 13 away meetings, and even then, these successes happened in battles with rather weak teams. I don’t think that visitors will be able to gain victory in the upcoming match.
In my opinion, it is worth betting on the home team. St. Pauli acts quite well on its pitch, and Nurnberg doesn’t impress with its away game. Besides, the visits to Millerntor are hard for the Club – Nurnberg managed to win only twice in 12 head-to-head meetings. I think that Nurnberg again cannot count on three points.
Prediction for the match: St. Pauli to win with +0.5 handicap
