Osnabrück vs Kaiserslautern prediction, odds and how to watch

Holstein Kiel and Osnabrück played out a 1-1 draw in the 2. Bundesliga, with the match settled by a Phil Harres penalty and a Hiroki Sekine own goal in a contest that produced plenty of cards, a red, and very little composure from either side.

Hertha BSC took all three points at Osnabrück with a 3-1 victory in the 2. Bundesliga, despite the hosts creating more chances and dominating possession. Goals from Josip Brekalo, Kevin Sessa, and Farid Alfa-Ruprecht sealed it for the visitors in a match that will frustrate Osnabrück deeply.

Magdeburg put on a clinical home display to dismantle Kaiserslautern 3-0, with Emmanuel Iyoha grabbing a brace and the hosts winning comfortably despite going into the match off the back of a poor recent run.

Kaiserslautern came to Hamburg and earned a deserved 2-1 win over FC St. Pauli, with substitute Abdoulie Ceesay scoring the winner a minute after coming on. St. Pauli had no answer for a visiting side that dominated the match from start to finish.

Kaiserslautern were dominant throughout as goals from Mário Sauer and Thierry Tazemeta sealed a comfortable 2-0 win over a Darmstadt 98 side that had no answer and no desire to find one.

DSC Arminia Bielefeld have conceded ten goals in their last five 2. Bundesliga matches and cannot afford another defensive collapse. Osnabrück arrive with problems of their own, but this one has goals written all over it.

Two sides with more questions than answers meet at the Betzenberg on Saturday. Kaiserslautern need to prove last month's 0-3 hammering was a blip. Bochum need to prove they can keep a clean sheet away from home.

Two sides that cannot keep things tight at the back meet in the 2. Bundesliga on Saturday. Something has to give, and someone has to show they actually want it.
