In-Depth Betting Tips and Predictions for SC Paderborn vs SV Darmstadt

The football season has got into full flow in the German lower tiers after a memorable opening weekend last week. Paderborn started the campaign strongly, with a 2-1 away win over promotion hopefuls Hertha Berlin. The goals for the visitors occurred either side of the half time interval, and despite a goal back for Berlin with 20 minutes to go, they were unable to rescue a draw.

Darmstadt’s opening game was less encouraging for the recently relegated side. They lost 2-0 to Fortuna Dusseldorf and got a man sent off too. Othmane El Idrissi was dismissed just seven minutes after coming on as a second half substitute and to rub salt into the wound, Dusseldorf secured all three points just a few minutes later.

Darmstadt would have been hoping to start the season strongly to give them the best chance to bounce back up to the Bundesliga at the first time of asking, but the painful defeat would’ve been a real shock to the system. Despite being away from home this weekend, I still think they will manage to mount a good response.

The visitors on Sunday have won all five of the last five meetings between the two clubs by an aggregate score of 11-4. Despite the apparent dominance in recent seasons by Darmstadt, both games in the 2022/23 season, which was the last time that the two teams were in the same division, finished 2-1, so that could mean that this game will be quite close too.
