Energie Cottbus desperately need points on Friday, Dec 4 at 6:30 PM in the 2. Bundesliga. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Energie Cottbus come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). VfL Osnabrück, meanwhile, arrive out of form (1W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Energie Cottbus face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. VfL Osnabrück have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Energie Cottbus won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Energie Cottbus a slight edge, but VfL Osnabrück are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
