Prediction
Here, we’re thinking that Greuther Furth will have a tough ask to hit the back of the net against this Karlsruhe side who we reckon should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a good battle with a 1-0 advantage for Karlsruhe at the conclusion of the game.
Should be an interesting one.
