It’s been disappointing for both Nurnberg and Hannover this season but a win for either would see them essentially save them from any further relegation worries which have been present for most of the season.

Nurnberg Preview – Can Nurnberg make it three straight wins at home?
Hannover 96 Preview – Can Hannover ease any lingering relegation fears by taking three points here?
Last weekend’s win against Holstein Kiel was Hannover’s first home victory in five matches and – just like their opponents tomorrow – only their third home success this season. Another thing they have in common with Nurnberg is the fact that they brought a new coach in, in November with Kenan Kocak taking the reigns. It’s not been as significant an impact just yet, however.
There was a lot of expectations surrounding Hannover coming into this campaign and it’s not anything they have been able to live up to. The fact that they too are only five points above the relegation playoff in indicative of that.

Interestingly, despite their struggles, Hannover have the third highest number of away wins in the 2. Bundesliga with five. Only leaders Arminia Bielefeld and Holsten Kiel have accumulated more victories on their travels. That will be the most frustrating thing for all concerned and there will be a feeling of what could have been had they found more consistency at home.
There’s a real efficiency at how Hannover approach their away matches with 16 goals scored in 12 games. It’s not prolific by any standard but it’s an style which clearly works for them.

Nurnberg have won the last two home meetings against Hannover, 2-0, and I’m expecting a similar sort of outcome on Friday.
