It is true that the 2. Bundesliga is only just beginning, but Würzburg have already shown signs that their season will be difficult. The team is in last position, has scored just one point and has the worst attack and weakest defense in the competition. If it does not show great growth, its destination will be the third division.

Hannover will respect their rival and that cannot be doubted, but respect does not mean not acting. He wants to take advantage of the local team to be going through a moment in a negative way, to beat him. If you can play in an organized and error-free way, it won’t be a surprise if you score all three points. Therefore, you will have to present defensive security and efficiency in attack.
