Hannover 96 and St. Pauli meet often enough to count as a pair who know each other's game well, especially their last meeting when Hannover 96 edged it 3-2. This time they meet again in the league, but the two sides are in quite different shape than before. Hannover 96 have just lost 0-3 in their latest league match, and their season overall is not looking great either, scoring fewer than they concede. As for St. Pauli, although they are unbeaten in 5 straight matches, they have drawn as many as 4 of 7 league games, and their attack is still not as sharp as it should be. This game should be open and end-to-end from the start, because both sides have visible weaknesses in defence. If Hannover 96 get the first goal from their home attacking game, they should keep the pressure on and close it out. But if St. Pauli score first, the game turns into a chase for the home side, which could swing the shape of the match in a completely different direction.
