St. Pauli vs Greuther Furth Match Preview

St. Pauli is ranked at 7th place with 44 points and comes in a very good form after four wins and a loss over the last five matches. They were riding a four game winning streak which not only made them climb in ranks and secure the stay in Bundesliga 2 for the next season, but now they sit only six points behind the promotion playoffs zone. In case of a probable win they would be only three points behind Hamburger SV.

With 48 goals their offensive side has been quite prolific this season and in the last five matches they scored a total of 11 goals, averaging at more than two goals per game. At home they scored more than half of their goals while managing to find the back of the net in four of the last five outings.

In attack we should see again the trio Kyereh - Burgstaller - Marmoush who together have scored 25 goals while also providing 13 assists.

Greuther Furth, on the other hand, is ranked at the 2nd spot with 54 points and comes unbeaten in the last five matches collecting three wins and two draws. They sit four points above Hamburger SV but they would need to avoid defeat here in order not to complicate their situation.

With 56 goals scored so far they have the second best offensive side in the league, averaging almost two goals per game and in the last five duels they scored a total of 10 goals maintaining the same numbers. On the road they are the team with the best performances as they have won 8 out of 15 games while losing just once.

Hrgota has scored 12 goals while providing 5 assists and is their best scorer but a huge impact has had the youngster Raum with his impressive 12 assists.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. St. Pauli is a team that always performs better while at home and I think they have what it takes to find the back of the net now. They scored in each of the last five h2h games against Greuther Furth while at home ground. Greuther Furth is so close to secure a ticket for promotion and with five matches left they will give their best to remain unbeaten. They know their rivals lack a solid defense and will push forward.
