APWin Prediction

Correct Score: 1 - 2

After a thorough assessment of the primary betting markets, APWin analysts have identified bets with strong value potential.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

It's hard to overlook the part that defence will play in this match. The capable defending of both sides will be tough for opposing offences, which is why it could be a low-scoring affair.

That overwhelming defence is also a great reason to go 'no' on the Both teams to score market.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Energie Cottbus and Hoffenheim II given their lack of goalscoring ability.

That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
