Betting Insights

• There is a really interesting tactical battle here between two coaches who approach the game in different ways.
• Thomas Stamm, the current boss at Dynamo Dresden, is very pragmatic and has a knack of getting players to switch positions and cover various tactical responsibilities.
• His side typically play a back three with wing-backs and they are very patient in their build-up, they can hold the ball well and play with the width in the wide areas to try and make overloads.
• Torsten Lieberknecht, who took charge of Kaiserslautern recently, likes his team to be compact in a midblock and to play at a higher tempo than the opposition, they will counter-press and try to force turnovers to play in transition.
• The odds on both teams to score look generous (1.47), so that’s the way we are going.
• 1.46 is also a decent odds on over 2.5 goals in the game, so we’ll take that too.
