Pronostic Bundesliga
Holstein Kiel, 17th and relegable, is 5 points behind Heidenheim, 16th and play-off, and 6 points behind Hoffenheim, 15th and first non-relegation. For its last match of the first leg, the promoted team faces Borussia Dortmund, 7th, 3 points behind the Top 4. The promoted team has just suffered its 12th defeat of the season in the Bundesliga on the field of Friborg (3-2) this Saturday , the 6th in the last 7 days of the championship. After the heavy defeat at M’Gladbach on December 14, Holstein Kiel saw a glimmer of hope after its 2 successes over Augsburg (5-1) at home and against Union Berlin (2-1) in a friendly but Machino’s teammates (6 goals) relapsed again.
Borussia Dortmund lost at Signal Iduna Park against the reigning German Champion, Bayer Leverkusen (3-2) this Friday evening. It’s a setback for Nuri Sahin’s team which had been undefeated in the league for 5 days (2 wins and 3 draws) and who remained on 1 setback against FC Barcelona (2-3) in the Champions League, on 1 draw against Hoffenheim (1-1) and 1 big success at Wolfsburg (1-3) three days before Christmas. With 17 goals scored in its last 8 outings, BVB 09 averages 2.12 goals per game. These statistics should improve after this opposition at Holstein-Stadion.
