Wolfsburg – Holstein Kiel Soccer Prediction

For the second time in a row, Wolfsburg ended the Bundesliga regular season in the third place and will have to chase the salvation through the play-off against the third classified of the Zweite Liga. A year ago, he managed to impose himself on Eintracht Braunschweig and to avoid relegation. Now, he is preparing to challenge the Holstein Kiel, a club that has never played in the top flight of German football and pursues a historic milestone.

The fact of being inexperienced at high levels could weigh on the training coached by Markus Anfang, also grappling with a statistic not encouraging: only in five circumstances on nineteen, in fact, a team of Zweite Liga has emerged victorious from the promotion-relegation playoff.

The Holstein Kiel plays in a daring way and relies above all on the exploits of Marvin Ducksch, author of nineteen goals in official matches during the current football season. The native Dortmund striker will probably be assisted by Kingsley Schindler, Alexander Mühling, David Kinsombi and Steven Lewerenz, who recently made four goals in a single match.

The Wolfsburg, in short, will risk being under pressure in some parts and not being able to keep inviolate their door. Overall, however, appears slightly favored in view of this challenge of going, in which it will probably be able to take advantage of possible guests’ naivities, often inattentive defensive. The return match will be played on May 21st.
