Hannover 96 host Energie Cottbus at Heinz von Heiden-Arena, Hannover on Sunday, Jan 24 at 1:30 PM in the 2. Bundesliga.
Hannover 96 come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Energie Cottbus, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Hannover 96 head into this on the back of a defeat, while Energie Cottbus arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
In 10 previous meetings, Hannover 96 lead 3–5 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Hannover 96 won 1–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Hannover 96 a slight edge, but Energie Cottbus are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
