HANNOVER 96 vs. HAMBURGER SV - German Bundesliga (23/02/2013)

Prediction: Hannover 96 will face Hamburger SV after a tough match against Russian Anzhi in Europa League 3 days after. This will surely affect Hannover's performance at the advantage of the team from Hamburg, that does also have a quite good away record with 3 wins and 4 draws (with a terrific 1-4 against Borussia Dortmund few weeks ago). Therefore, considering tiredness and injuries caused by the European cups during the week, there is value on Van der Vaart and co. getting full 3 points from the nearby city of  Hannover.    

Pick:  Hamburger SV (+0.00)   Stake:  6/10

FREIBURG vs. EINTRACHT FRANKFURT - German Bundesliga (22/02/2013)

Prediction: two surprising teams will face each other tonight in the first match of the German Bundesliga this weekend. I expect a tactical game with few goals and both team happy to share one point each: while Freiburg does not have a clean home record (5 wins out of 11 matches and just 1 goal scored in the last 3 home matches), Eintracht Frankfurt will miss two important attacking midfielders, Lakic and Inui (suspended). 0-0 or 1-1 are the most likely results.   

Pick:  Draw    Stake:  4/10

Bwin: X at 3.50
