Holstein Kiel vs SV Darmstadt - 23/05/2021
3293
As we head into the final weekend of action in the Bundesliga.2, the identity of which two teams will be playing in the German top-flight is not yet certain.
One of the teams looking to go up are Holstein Kiel, who host Darmstadt on Sunday afternoon.
Holstein Kiel are currently second place in the table, a point ahead of Greuther Furth, who occupy the promotion play-off berth and also two points behind league leaders Bochum in the fight for promotion to the big time of German football.
The home team suffered a blow to their automatic promotion hopes last time out, as they suffered a 3-2 defeat at Karlsruher. The loss ended a four-game game-winning run for Ole Werner’s team in the Bundesliga.2.
The good news for Holstein Kiel is that they are back on home soil this weekend, where they have won their previous seven league matches, having also kept clean sheets in five of their last six home outings. An eighth straight league win would send them into the Bundesliga.
SV Darmstadt have very little to play for this season, as they are currently eighth-place in the league table, 13 points adrift of the promotion play-off spot.
Despite having very little to play for, the visitors recent league form has been strong. They head into this clash on the back of a six-match unbeaten league run, which includes five wins.
A 5-1 hammering of Heidenheim last time out also means that Markus Anfang’s team has scored at least two goals in five of their last six league matches.
Darmstadt have also been on a good run of form on their travels in the Bundesliga.2, as they are unbeaten in five away matches, recording four wins in the process.
Forebet predicts that Holstein Kiel will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to book their place in the Bundesliga for next season.
