Command Analysis

Koblenz

Current form
Once again, they failed to stay in the Regional League. The club under the leadership of Michael Stahl was absolutely hopeless. However, the management gave him another chance to return to semi-professional football.
There were also good moments. The team's performance in the Rhein League Cup gave it the opportunity to try its hand at the German Cup again seven years later. There are some pleasant memories associated with this tournament. At the beginning of the last decade, Koblenz managed to reach the last 16 twice in a row. This journey was also remembered for a crazy goal from 61 meters away.
In the last match the team suffered a 0:1 defeat against Engers, having conceded a goal at the beginning of the second half.
Interesting trends for betting
- Koblenz have failed to win at home in nine of their last 10 matches.
- The team has won 24 games in a row at home with a handicap of (+4.5).
Tentative line-up : Zadach – Yaman, Von der Brakke, Grgic, Zegli – Müller, Blagojevich, Wingender, Tuchscherer – Yeboah, Esmel

Wolfsburg

Current form
Wolfsburg's management delayed the dismissal of the head coach last season, and Ralph Hasenhüttl, who took over the helm, had to try hard to avoid relegation from the Bundesliga. Several minimal victories even allowed them to take 12th place in the table. They performed better in the German Cup. They reached the 1/8 finals and beat Leipzig along the way. This was a fundamental confrontation, because the "wolves" had previously stumbled over this trophy three times in a row. The current competition will be an anniversary since the team lifted this trophy over their heads in the 2014/15 season.
The opponents in the off-season were all hand-picked. The most unremarkable club was Hannover. The coaching staff worked on pressing, which is the most important element of the playing style. The results were not very good. Only one victory – against Lille (1:0). In the last game they put on a show. The action took place away to Brentford. The English scored two quick goals, and then Wolfsburg came back three times, and in the end they drew (4:4).
Interesting trends for betting
- The total under 5.5 goals was played in 18 away matches of the team in a row.
- Wolfsburg have not drawn in eight of their last ten matches in all competitions
Estimated line-up : Grabara – Lacroix, Zesiger, Bornau – Baku, Gerhardt, Arnold, Kaminski – Mayer, Wimmer – Behrens

2.15Tip and bets
The hosts had big problems with attacking play last season. They scored on average less than a goal per match. And this is at the level of the fourth division. We think it is not worth mentioning once again how difficult it will be to score against a team like Wolfsburg. Even in the last meeting, where everyone expected a confident victory from them, Koblenz was unable to score at their stadium.
Prediction - both teams will not score with odds of 1.77
Bet on the outcome
The "White-Greens" are the clear favorites. They have never been knocked out of the Cup by a lower division club. Last year they had a similar opponent, and they beat them by six goals. I wouldn't say that this is a trend. There were times when they achieved success by only one or two goals. Let's proceed from the current form, and we believe that a rout is possible.
