MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: HOME WIN
Osnabruck earned a 2-0 victory Tuesday night to get their first three-pointer in eleven league matches. As usual, Osnabruck relied on a stable defense to launch the counterattack against Greuther Furth. The visitors received an extra share of help from the goalposts, which their hosts found three times, to earn the win and clean sheet. Thioune credited his team for their “intensity, will, and passion” in earning an end to their winless streak.
Jahn Regensburg again saw their derby fight with Nurnberg decided by an added-time goal. But instead of saving a point with a late effort, Mersad Selimbegovic’s squad saw two points slip away when a Tim Knipping own-goal equalized for guest Nurnberg in a 2-2 draw. Jahn Regensburg seemed to be late to the match while Nurnberg dominated play in taking the 1-0 lead. The home team then snapped to life and took control of the match, scoring just before the halftime break and early in the second half. Knipping’s unfortunate header came in the fourth minute of added time.

Jahn Regensburg have scored just one goal in their last four away matches. Despite losing big in their last two at home, Osnabruck’s “score first and defend” approach has earned them big wins at home this season. Expect the home side to move closer to their class-retention goal with a Friday night home win.
SECOND PREDICTION: FIRST TEAM TO SCORE - OSNABRUCK
Osnabruck scored first against Hannover and Wehen in their last two home matches, but lost both by a combined score of 10-4.
