Eintracht Braunschweig will be eager to bounce back from a 3-1 defeat to Arminia Bielefeld as they return to Eintracht-Stadion, where they are targeting a third consecutive victory. Die Löwen have been far more convincing on home soil, winning two of their last three matches there and scoring 2.00 goals per game across their last five home outings. However, Aaron Opoku picked up a knock against Arminia, leaving his availability in doubt ahead of this encounter.

Energie Cottbus, meanwhile, are going through a difficult spell, having extended their winless run in the 2. Bundesliga to five matches with a 2-1 defeat to Bochum. Claus-Dieter Wollitz's men took the lead at the weekend but were unable to hold on, highlighting their recent defensive problems. They have conceded 2.20 goals per game in their last five away fixtures, while Pelivan and Boziaris are both pushing for starting places. There are no fresh injury concerns for the visitors.

Both sides have struggled for consistency, but Braunschweig's stronger home performances give them a slight advantage. Eintracht Braunschweig to Win is our main tip, while Over 2.5 goals seems tempting given that both teams have conceded more than two goals per game in their respective home and away samples.
