Nürnberg are returning here after visiting Sandhausen in a 2. Bundesliga game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Fabian Nürnberger and Erik Shuranov scored the goal(s). Manager R. Klauß felt very clever after Erik Shuranov scored the winning goal against Sandhausen, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 70th minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Erik Shuranov scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time. Midfield player Mats Møller Dæhli got a match rating of 7.84 in that game, the max score being 10. Dæhli hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 6 times and had 40 successful passes (of 47 total).

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Darmstadt 98 (0-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Nürnberg perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Nürnberg as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Nürnberg has won six of these, drawn four and lost three.

Nürnberg are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. As for guarding their own goal, Nürnberg have only let in 3 goals at home.
