2. Bundesliga: What this game might miss in elegance it should pay back in effort and dedication. Get ready for Paderborn - Sandhausen!

Insights:
  • Paderborn have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Sandhausen have conceded at least twice as many corners as they have won away.

Paderborn are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Sandhausen is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
