MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: HOME WIN
Ingolstadt have had a
pretty average season thus far, accumulating 34 points from 26 games. The
Schanzer are just four points clear of the drop zone, although they have looked
in no real danger of going down this campaign. Last Saturday, Ingolstadt clinched
a 1-1 draw at bottom dwellers Darmstadt, their first point since drawing at Aue
in the middle of February. However, although they had big ambitions at the
beginning of this season they have one of the worst home records, having won just
four of their 12 league games in front of their own crowd.
Dresden are finally showing
signs of life having won four of their last six. Since losing to Sandhausen at
the end of January, which was their third league defeat in a row, Dynamo have turned
things around. The team did lose 2-0 at home to Darmstadt two weeks ago, but
returned to winning ways last Friday as they squeezed past Heidenheim with a 3-2
win at the DDV Arena. Uwe Neuhaus’ men are currently in ninth in the second-tier
table.
After losing a lot of
ground in recent weeks, Ingolstadt will be looking to hit back here. It could
be close, but I am backing Ingolstadt to claim all three points at Audi Sportpark.
SECOND PREDICTION: ODD/EVEN – EVEN
All of the last five
competitive meetings between these two sides have finished with even goals.
Take a punt on even goals to be notched at Audi Sportpark on Sunday afternoon.
HEAD TO HEAD
Ingolstadt have won just
one and drawn four of their last five home meetings with Dresden.
