Saarbrucken vs Kaiserslautern Prediction & Betting Tips (2 April)

Kaiserslautern and Saarbrucken are the two surprising protagonists of one of the semi-finals of the German Cup. The match will be next Tuesday, at 7:45 pm mainland Portugal time and will be played at the Stadion Ludwigspark, in the city of Saarbrucken. The home team is the true "behemoth" of the competition, and many believe that this journey could end in glory.

At his hands, none other than Bayern Munich, Frankfurt and Borussia M'gladbach have already succumbed. Kaiserslautern's campaign was more modest, despite also having eliminated historic teams such as Cologne, Nuremberg and Herta Berlin. Germany has its eyes set on this semi-final duel, which before the competition would have been highly unlikely to happen, but which will now place one of the teams in the competition's final!

A few items are missing at the moment for the premises. Indeed, the senior defender Uaferro, the replacement midfielder Neudecker, the long-term injured striker Schmidt (3 goals) and the never-used Jacob are still in the infirmary. On the other hand, the major offensive weapons of this team will be there. We think of the young Frenchman Naïfi (5 goals), the important Rahibic (6 goals) and the top scorer Brüncker who has scored 10 times this season in the league. The latter city was also decisive on 3 occasions in this competition and he scored the winning goal at the very end of the match against Gladbach in the previous round.

In Kaiserlautern, the long-term injured Zuck will be absent. On top of that, starting goalkeeper Krahl is not certain to be present, nor is top scorer Ragnar Ache. His absence would be a considerable blow to this team as he has scored 14 league goals this season. We also find in this team the former Monaco full-back Almani Touré.
