Holstein Kiel desperately need points on Friday, Oct 9 at 6:30 PM in the 2. Bundesliga. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Eintracht Braunschweig come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Holstein Kiel travel out of form (0W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Eintracht Braunschweig face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Holstein Kiel have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Eintracht Braunschweig won 0–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Eintracht Braunschweig a slight edge, but Holstein Kiel are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
