Magdeburg vs Paderborn: Top free betting tips

Disappointed from a set back in an action-packed game against Schalke, Magdeburg prepare for the next 2. Bundesliga against Paderborn. The fixture will take place at MDCC Arena on Friday, 22 September. Paderborn enter this game after ending their losing sequence with a victory over Wehen Wiesbaden in the league.

Match result prediction: Magdeburg to win

Magdeburg have jotted down three victories in the last five matches in 2. Bundesliga while ending one of them in a draw. The Blues have been in even more stable form at MDCC Arena where they won four of the last five league outings while losing zero. On the other hand, Paderborn has earned just one victory in the same number of road fixtures in 2. Bundesliga, together with two defeats and two draws. Magdeburg have also gone undefeated in the previous four H2Hs against Paderborn and won two of them. Therefore, we set Magdeburg as our favourite to take all three points in this game.

Total goals prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

The latest H2Hs of these two clubs at MDCC Arena have been low-scoring affairs. But Magdeburg’s front line has been impressive in 2. Bundesliga as they have notched goals with an average of three goals per game in the last five league outings. Meanwhile, Paderborn has rattled the net seven times in the same duration. Moreover, both teams have conceded goals in at least four of their previous five fixtures in German second division. Hence, a total of Over 2.5 Goals will be our second pick for this duel.

Correct score prediction: 2-1 to Magdeburg

Paderborn has managed to score only one goal in three of the previous five fixtures in 2. Bundesliga. Paderborn has also been unable to score more than one goal in any of the last five games against Magdeburg at MDCC Arena. But the Blues have an excellent scoring record in recent games by scoring multiple goals in four of the recent five league matches. Additionally, Paderborn has conceded two goals per game in two of the last three 2. Bundesliga fixtures. Based on these statistics, we imagine a 2-1 lead for Magdeburg at the end of the ninety minutes of this encounter.
