When Sandhausen plays Hansa Rostock at Ostseestadion on Friday, they’ll be eager to snap a three-game losing streak. Last time out, the hosts Hansa Rostock earned a much-needed victory, breaking their own run of four Bundesliga II games without earning three points.
With just 13 points from 14 games, visiting Sandhausen now finds themselves second from bottom with just four points separating these two teams.
Prediction
Against Jahn Regensburg last Saturday, Hansa Rostock had all the momentum they needed thanks to a quick start. Prior to the result, Jens Härtel’s team had gone winless in four, but they are currently just outside the top half. Against Eintracht Braunschweig last weekend, Sandhausen twice generated replies, and they were rewarded with a point. The visitors have plummeted into the bottom two after earning just one point in their past three league matches.

Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Picking a winner is a difficult challenge because both of these teams are out of form, and Hansa has only won three of their previous ten home games. With only one victory in their previous thirteen away league games, the away team likewise provides nothing in the way of expectations. In fact, Sandhausen has dropped six of their past eight away games, but they did get a point when these teams faced here in the analogous matchup last season. In March, Hansa won a close 1:0 match against Bundesliga II opponent. It’s hard to have much trust in the home team after losing three of their past four games and failing to score in each of those defeats. With Sandhausen scoring just six goals in their last eight away league games, a low-scoring contest could definitely be anticipated. But despite not being a sure thing, both teams have had over 2.5 goals scored in each of their past four games. Considering both teams’ inconsistent play, this matchup is tough to anticipate. Even so, we’ll choose the over 2.5 goal wager, with Hansa having a chance to win by a razor-thin margin.
