Hannover 96 host Magdeburg at Heinz von Heiden-Arena, Hannover on Tuesday, Mar 2 at 6:30 PM in the 2. Bundesliga.

Hannover 96 come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Magdeburg, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 0D 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Hannover 96 head into this on the back of a defeat, while Magdeburg arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

History strongly favours Hannover 96 here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Magdeburg, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Magdeburg won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: Magdeburg's quality should tell even on the road. Hannover 96 will push, but the visitors have too much class. Magdeburg to win.
