Paderborn 07: form and statistics

Paderborn returned to winning ways with a 3-2 comeback win over Nurnberg in their last game after they had lost three straight games prior to that. Paderborn are unbeaten in eight of their last 11 games and have won three of their previous five home games. They sit 5th on the table with 48 points in 30 games, having scored 51 goals and conceded 41. They are on the same points with their visitors, with both sides fighting for promotion. With four games remaining this season, Paderborn will still face Schalke 04, Magdeburg, and Karlsruher. Anything aside from a win in these games may cost them a chance for promotion.

Preussen Munster: Lineup

Lukas Kwasniok will stick with his back three in this game, and I expect Marvin Mehlem and Sven Michel to provide the needed support for Adriano Grimaldi in the attack. The availability of Sebastian Klaas for this clash is in doubt, but Ilyas Ansah and Felix Platte are confirmed out of this game.

SV Elversberg: Form and statistics

Elversberg played a 1-1 draw in their last game against Dusseldorf to extend their unbeaten run to four straight games. They now remain unbeaten in ten of their previous eleven games, and their last five on the road. They sit 4th on the table with 48 points in 30 games, having scored 55 goals and conceded 34. They are one point from the promotional playoffs and six points behind the league leaders, FC Koln. They will battle Nurnberg, Braunschweig, and Schalke 04 in their remaining games of the season.

SV Elversberg: Lineup

Horst Steffen will still have to do without Patryk Dragon, Frederik Jakel, Maximilian Rohr (injury), and Luca Schnellbacher for this clash. However, that won’t stop him from fielding a strong 11 in his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation.

This is one of the most difficult games in this round to predict, as both sides are in need of a win in their fight for promotion. However, while none of their head-to-head games resulted in a draw, I expect this game to end in a draw.
