Hannover 96 vs Dynamo Dresden Predictions

• Hannover 96 have drawn 8 of their 13 home games in the 2. Bundesliga.
• Both teams have scored in 77% of Hannover 96’s 2. Bundesliga home games.
• Dynamo Dresden have only won 1 game on the road this season.
• 50% of Dynamo Dresden’s away games in the 2. Bundesliga have seen both teams score.

Hannover have struggled for wins in their own backyard

Hannover 96 suffered a disappointing 3-1 defeat away at Sandhausen which saw the home side leapfrog Die Roten in the 2. Bundesliga table. Dynamo Dresden are 4pts adrift at the foot of the table following their 2-0 defeat at home against title-chasing Stuttgart and look odds on to get relegated now that they trail 15th placed Nurnberg by 8pts.

However, Dynamo Dresden will fancy their chances on Wednesday evening as Hannover have largely been disappointing in their own backyard this season, securing a mere two wins from a possible thirteen. The hosts have drawn 63% of their home matches and only score an average of 1.23 goals per home game, conceding 1.54 per game at the other end.

Dresden unbeaten on the road in their last three matches

The visitors haven’t played well on the road but have managed to pick up 7pts, which includes four draws. However, five of those points have arrived in their last three away games and Dynamo Dresden are aiming to make it four games unbeaten on their travels this Wednesday.

Dresden only score an average of 0.75 goals per away game so we’re not expecting any more than one goal from the visitors in this match, but the fact that Hannover have only kept clean sheets in 8% of their home games bodes well for the visitors. Both teams are predicted to find the net on Wednesday, with that scenario playing out in 77% of Hannover’s home games and half of Dresden’s road trips.

Both teams have scored in 3 of the last 5 meetings between these two clubs

We’re predicting goals for both teams here and have backed the bottom club Dresden to claim a share of the spoils. Hannover have that unwanted record for stalemates at home, leading us to a 1-1 correct score prediction.

The visitors have looked difficult to break down on their recent travels and need to continue picking up points on the road if they are to avoid relegation this season. Hannover have only managed to win 15% of their home matches and even though they are up against the divisions bottom club this Wednesday, we’re expecting a tight and tense affair between the pair.
