Wolfsburg v Braunschweig Betting Tips

Wolfsburg aren’t likely going to get an easy time of things in this tie as they look to keep their Bundesliga status for next season. The club went W10 D7 L17 across the course of the regular season and getting off to a good start in this home fixture in the tie is going to be all important for them. They have produced a mixed bag of results on home soil though, having gone W5 D1 L4 in their last ten fixtures. Both teams not to score in this one is a price of 8/11 and both teams have scored in one of Wolfsburg’s last five home games. Wolfsburg to win to nil at bet365 for the game is a price of 13/10 and that would set them up so well. There have only been the two previous games between the two clubs, which were back in the 2013/14 season of the Bundesliga and Wolfsburg collected just the one point from the two games, losing at home 2-0. In the Bet365 correct score market, a Wolfsburg 1-0 victory in this game will return a price of 5/1. Wolfsburg do have Mario Gomez who netted 16 league goals in their campaign and he is a quote of 21/20 in the anytime goalscorer market.

Braunschweig finished third in Bundesliga 2 and only missed out on booking a top two finish by a point in a tight race. So they get another chance to get themselves up to the top flight. Braunschweig went W19 D9 L6 across the course of the season and out on the road they have lost just two of their last ten games (W3 D4 L2). So they will turn up and really compete in this tie and will particularly be a threat back at home in the second leg. They have lost just two of their last fifteen games home and away and under 2.5 goals at Bet365 is trading at a price of 3/4. This is a big game for them and they will want to stay in touch at the very least. Their attacking threats are Domi Kumbela and Christopher Wyman who are 3/1 and 7/2 respectively in the anytime goalscorer market. After their mid-table finish in Bundesliga 2 last season, this is a massive chance for them to get back and enjoy a taste of the top flight. Will they be able to extend their unbeaten record against Wolfsburg?

Wolfsburg v Braunschweig Predictions

Wolfsburg to win: The top flight side will face a tremendously tough fixture in the second leg away from home. But there has just about been enough from them on home soil across the season to suggest that they can squeeze out an advantage, probably by nothing more than a one goal margin.
