Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Osnabruck and Paderborn square off against each other at Stadion an der Bremer Bruck in what is expected to be an interesting 2. Bundesliga game. Osnabruck aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Karlsruher and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. Both Lars Kehl and Emeka Oduah are out of contention with injuries, while Robert Tesche is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Paderborn, on the other hand, kicked off 2024 with a 1-0 loss to Greuther Furth. As the visitors are eager to get back on course as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Adriano Grimaldi is unlikely to return to the starting XI after failing to convert a penalty against the Cloverleaves, while forward Filip Bilbija misses out with a muscle injury.
Highlighted Team (Paderborn):
Welcoming their rivals at Benteler-Arena, Paderborn are a German club that will compete in the Bundesliga in the 2019/2020 season. The club played their first ever match in the German top flight on August 24, 2019, with the team sharing the spoils with Mainz (2-2) in front of home fans.
Benteler-Arena can hold up to 15,000 spectators and it was opened on July 20, 2008. Paderborn play their home matches in blue and black shirts and black shirts, but white is the dominant colour of their away kit. Until the 1980s TuS Scholls Neuhaus were considered the club’s main rivals are Arminia Bielefeld, with the two teams facing each other in Ostwestfalenderby.
This rivalry was established in the 2008/2009 season when Arminia Bielefeld dropped to the 2. Bundesliga. It has to be noted that Paderborn have yet to represent Germany in European competitions.
