SV 07 Elversberg vs Karlsruher SC: What to Expect
SV 07 Elversberg
Elversberg has had rather mixed results lately. Horst Steffen’s men have won two, drawn one, and suffered two defeats in their last five matches.
What is worth mentioning about the hosts this season is that they have become bolder and are not afraid to face even such rivals as Fortuna or Magdeburg on equal terms. Yes, this is not to say that all such attempts are successful, but it is thanks to this courage that the team is now fighting for the Bundesliga.
Before the Elversberg vs Karlsruher match, the hosts played their game away against 1. FC Köln (1:0), where they faced the second Bundesliga.2 team on almost equal terms and conceded a goal only in the 81st minute.
Karlsruher SC
If you look at our Bundesliga 2 season preview, Karslruher SC was among the favorites of the season from the very beginning.
What Karslruher lacks at the moment is stability in results. Until recently, the guests were in second place in Bundesliga.2 and were in a fairly comfortable situation, but defeated by 1. FC Nürnberg (2:1) and Fortuna (2:3) have already rolled back Christian Eichner’s men to eighth place, although the victory in match 1. FC Nürnberg vs Darmstadt 98 could easily bring them back into the top five teams (and possibly even the top three).
The game against Fortuna, which preceded the game against Elversberg, perfectly outlines the situation in the team, because having a comfortable two-goal lead, KSC managed to lose with a score of 2:3.
