St. Pauli Borussia Dortmund betting prediction

The home team comes to this stage of the DFB Pokal (Round of 16) after having eliminated Dynamo Dresden with a away win by (2‑3), after extended time, in the previous round. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 12 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the 2. Bundesliga, they got a home tie against Erzgebirge Aue by (2‑2). In the last 10 home matches St. Pauli has won 8, tied 1 and lost 1. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 10 of their 19 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

St. Pauli comes for this match after a draw, 2-2, against Aue, counting for the German second division: the team's goals were signed by Etienne Amenyido and Jakov Medic. In the last round of the German Cup, the home team eliminated Dynamo Dresden. In this match against Borussia Dortmund, coach Timo Schultz is expected to play in the usual 4-4-2, privileging defensive organization and counterattacks along the flanks. Christopher Buchtmann and Jackson Irvine are the great organizers of the offensive process, being very strong in passing and vision of the game. For this game, the master of the house can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Dennis Smarsch, Jakov Medic, Leart Paqarda, Jamie Lawrence, Eric Smith, Jackson Irvine, Marcel Hartel, Finn Ole Becker, Guido Burgstaller, Sebastian Ohlsson, Etienne Amenyido.
Coach: T. Schultz.
