Opting for an over in a game between two candidates for relegation might not be the best of ideas, but the teams are not only experiencing difficulties with offense, but with defense as well. If we take a look at the starting line up, we can see that HSV's defense consists of four players who have not been spending much time on the pitch this year - Mannciene (two games), Diekmeier (ten games), Djourou (16 games), and the only one who played more is Westermann (20 games). 24 rounds were played so far. Rajkovic and Jansen would have been on the team if they weren't injured, and Lam might be in as well. On the other hand, Pinola and Petrak will be in the center back positions as Nurnberg. The first one is the left back, the second one defensive midfielder. Coach Verbeek was forced to reshuffle the team is such a away due to Nilsson and Chandler's absences and Pogatetz's poor performances. HSV need this win, and I don't think they would play very patiently with this defense. Slomka did, however, make an improvement regrading that. On the other hand, Nurnberg simply can't play a defensive oriented game. They have a young team that will create opportunities no matter the opponent. But, defending with this center back duo will be very tough. There are too many absent players on both teams, which, when combined with the fact they both have to win, can cause a lot of attempts in the game. I believe at least three of them will be used.
