Hannover versus Kaiserslautern at the Bundesliga game in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 (fixed headline)
Last week, Hannover scored an early goal against relegation candidates Werder Bremen but a late second half goal by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Per-Mertesacker-c29680 gave Bremen a crucial point. That draw took them out of the top three as Bayern Munich capitalized on the slip up and moved
to third place in the Bundesliga standings. But they are still in the running to qualify for the Europa League.
Tonight, they take on Kaiserslautern at home and would certainly be aiming for 3 points against a side that has a rough relegation battle ahead. Last week, Moravek’s late goal in the second half earned Kaiserslautern a surprising draw against league leaders
Borussia Dortmund and in doing so, the side avoided a fourth consecutive defeat. Kaiserslautern has been winless so far this year and they should be looking to end this miserable streak in order to move away from the dreaded relegation zone.
Head to head
Hannover
The 96ers have had a pretty good season so far and are currently lying in 4th place in the Bundesliga table with 38 points. Although they have lost 8 games this season, they have been very good at home and in their 11 home games, they have won
7, drawn 3 and lost just 1 game. However, Hannover
seem to concede goals at a regular pace at home. In those 11 games, they have conceded 14 goals which is a very odd stat for a team that is in the 4th place. The
defense shows a lot of lack of concentration in the final stages of the game. Between the 76th and 90th minute of the games Hannover have conceded 8 goals and they should be giving this particular
stat a serious look if they want to play in
Europe next season.
However, Hannover have shown this season that they can score goals in any stage of the game. Their counter-attacking game is a treat to watch. 15 goals scored by Hannover this season have come in the first half
but they have scored 18 goals in the Bundesliga after the 1st half break which goes on to show that this side is a big threat whenever it comes for the second period.
Kaiserslautern
More concentration would be paid on Kaiserslautern’s away record as they play away tonight.
Of 11 away games played so far, Kaiserslautern have lost 8 games and won just three times. Their goal difference is another worrying statistic for their fans. A goal difference of -11 is an appalling statistic for a side that is already in the relegation
zone. They have conceded 26 goals away from home which shows their
defense’s fragility.
Their defense’s lack of concentration is further proved by another statistic. Out of the 38 goals Hannover
have conceded this season, 11 have come in the final stages of the first half. It is a statistic that many teams in the league have exploited and will keep on exploiting until or unless they find a way to plug
the holes. For the record, they have also a very bad habit to conceding goals in the final stages of the game. They have let in 18 goals in the final stages of the game, a loop hole that was exploited efficiently by Borussia Dortmund.
Predictions
Hannover know that they will be up against a very leaky
defense and will look to expose the defense tonight
against a team that is definitely going down if it doesn’t stop the trend. A 3-0 victory is in the cards for the homeside.
