St. Pauli vs. Hanover tip, prognosis & odds 02/20/2022
After two matchdays in which FC St. Pauli had to give up their top position in the 2nd Bundesliga, the Kiezkicker have now returned to their place in the sun. This must now be defended as part of the 23rd matchday in the lower house. However, this task will not be easy, because even in the event of a home win against Hannover 96, Werder Bremen, the league’s strongest-form competitor, is lurking behind them with the same number of points and FC Ingolstadt is the guest at the bottom.

But caution should still be advised, because unlike in the first half of the season, the Lower Saxony are clearly in better form under their new coach Christoph Dabrowski. Only two of the seven matches with the ex-professional on the sidelines were lost. Above all, H96 has increased offensively, which is why – also in view of the defensive weaknesses of the home side, which are defined in more detail in the following paragraph – between St. Pauli and Hannover a prognosis for a high-scoring game seems sensible.

St. Pauli – Statistics & current form
The ease with which FC St. Pauli rushed from victory to victory in the first half of the season, was able to win five consecutive games in the 2nd Bundesliga and went to the top of the table has now been lost. It is no longer the carelessness of wanting to outsmart the big, renowned top teams as the secret favourite, which distinguishes the Kiezkicker. Instead reigns due to the increased expectations, a new pressure situationhenceforth to be the hunted again.
From the point of view of coach Timo Schultz’s team, it was all the more important to get back on the road to success last weekend after five games in a row without a win. Although not all that glitters was gold in the 3-2 win against Jahn Regensburg on Saturday evening, the potential of Burgstaller, Kyereh and Co. was still visible over long stretches.
St. Pauli’s defense is currently not suitable for the promotion race
It will now be interesting to see whether the Hamburgers will follow suit at home. Statistically, there is a lot to be said for this, after all, FC St. Pauli is the best home team in the second division with eight wins and two draws. In terms of goals scored in front of a home crowd, no one can hold a candle to the Kiezkicker from the Reeperbahn. On average, 2.8 hits were achieved per encounter, which would exceed the over-line even without the opponent’s involvement.
However, because it should not be neglected that the Schultz-Elf recently had enormous problems with their own defense, a match with a relatively large number of goals can be assumed. in the past In five second division games, keeper Vasilj always had to get behind him at least twice. The last clean sheet win was on October 24th. Since then, both teams have met in eight of the nine Pauli games. For the upcoming duel between St. Pauli and Hanover, the tip on “both meetings” is therefore only logical and consistent.
Expected formation of St. Pauli:
Vasilj – Zander, Dzwigala, Medic, Paqarada – Smith – Irvine, Haertel – Kyereh – Burgstaller, Amenyido

Hanover – Statistics & current form
All in all, Hannover 96 cannot be satisfied at all with the way the season has gone so far. Actually, the Lower Saxony had big plans, wanted to get involved in the top third of the classification and maybe even have a say in the fight for promotion. The reality, however, continues to be the fear of relegation.
In view of the chances of staying in the league, the Lower Saxony state capital was able to take a deep breath recently. On the one hand, because two teams, FC Ingolstadt and Erzgebirge Aue, have already lost points. Due to the significantly improved performances under the new coach Christoph Dabrowski, who replaced Jan Zimmermann in a responsible position at the beginning of December and has since played eight competitive games on the bench.
Does Hanover annoy the next favorite?
In addition to the sensational entry into the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup, the record in the second division is likely to be impressive. Three wins face two draws and two defeats. In the previous week, 96 won a considerable point against the promotion aspirants from Darmstadt. Hamburger SV also lost their feathers against the Dabrowski team. Can the table-13. also trip up the leader?
We wouldn’t lean out the window that far, but the guests can still be expected to score a goal on Sunday afternoon. On the one hand, the Lower Saxony have been victorious in their six last eight direct duels against the upcoming opponent. On the other hand, the offensive, which was so disappointing over long stretches of the first half of the season, remained only in two of the eight mentioned competitive games under Dabrowski without own goal. Greater importance is attached to playing with the ball, and there is no lack of quality either. Goals therefore seem inevitable.
Expected formation of Hanover:
Zieler – Dehm, M. Franke, Borner, Hult – D. Kaiser, Diemers – Stolze, Kerk, Teuchert – Beier

St. Pauli – Hanover Direct comparison / H2H balance
Hannover 96 is possibly a kind of feared opponent for the Kiezkicker. Hamburg have only won one of the last eight competitive games against their northern rivals (six bankruptcies, one draw). In front of a home crowd, the record does not look much better. Only three wins in 16 home games is the stated thesis. Also in the first leg, the 96er kept the upper hand at home with 1:0.
Statistics highlights for St. Pauli versus Hanover
Betting Base Prediction & St. Pauli – Hanover tip
On paper, FC St. Pauli is clearly favored against Hannover according to betting odds. In our eyes, however, this favorite role is a bit too clear. We justify this assumption, among other things, with the fact that the front runner has only won one of the last six league games and also meets a real feared opponent who has won six of the last eight duels.
Nevertheless, it must of course be pointed out that the Schultz team is still the best home team in the league, is still unbeaten at Millerntor and quickly scores three goals per home game on average. The guests from Lower Saxony are no longer cannon fodder either. Two defeats from eight competitive games under Dabrowski have breathed life back into the classic Bundesliga side.
Key facts – St. Pauli vs. Hanover tip
- St. Pauli is still unbeaten (eight wins, two draws, 2.8 goals per game)
- In the past five games, Hamburg have always conceded at least two goals
- Six of the last eight direct duels went to Hannover
We therefore believe that both teams will score at least once on Sunday afternoon. We have already reported on the offensive strength of the home side. In addition, there has been a serious defensive vulnerability in recent weeks, which makes it extremely likely that the guests will also write.
Between St. Pauli and Hanover, the tip on “both meetings” is offered at odds of 1.62 at the tested bookmaker Betway.
