In spite of the fact that Karlsruhe is fifth from bottom, gained only two points in last seven matches, and with 1-1-3 6/9 as away balance, odds are dropping in their favour

The reason stay in the many missings for home team.Infact Union Berlin will suffer the absences of Hottecke ( first gk, not a new absence), Gohlert ( def.3+1), Madouni (def.7), Silvio ( striker 7+1 4goals), Terodde (striker 10+1).

It is interesting to note also that – apart Paderborn, Union Berlin gained almost all his òpoints against weak teams ( for example seven points were obtained against the three teams last in table), so, their real strength couldn’t be so great as odds suggest, specially in this match where tnhey have important missings.

Karlsruhe has only  Iashvili ( striker 10 3 goals) as remarkable absence here and could gain at least a draw in this match
