Kaiserslautern vs Elversberg prediction 07.03.2025 | 2. Bundesliga

• Competition: 2. Bundesliga

• Kickoff: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
• Venue: Fritz Walter Stadion (Kaiserslautern)

Kaiserslautern, a four-time German champion, is not even close to its former glory. They last were in the German top-flight division in 2011/12 - over a decade ago, even spending four seasons in 3rd league. However, this season has the potential to be one of their best in a very long time as they are currently in 2nd place with 42 points - on level with points with 1st placed HSV. However, the teams from 3rd to 5th place (Magdeburg, FC Koln, and Paderborn) are only one point away. So, even though they are in a good position, they can easily drop down several spots, and it is crucial to win points at home.

Elversberg are constantly improving its results. After securing two consecutive promotions in 2021/22 and 2022/23, they finished 10th last year in Bundesliga 2. But this season, surprisingly, they are among the promotion contenders! Right now, they sit in 6th place with 39 points from 24 matches - just three points away from 2nd-placed Kaiserslautern.

Kaiserslautern vs Elversberg pick: Over 2.5 goals

Kaiserslautern are one of the best teams in the league for this bet, with 71% of their games finishing with three or more goals. And at home, that number is even higher - an incredible 83%. At home, they have been pretty efficient, scoring two or more goals in ten out of 12 matches.

Elversberg are in excellent form, with three wins and two draws in the last five games, with 11 scored goals - 2.2 per game. They have been pretty efficient after the winter break, as they scored two or more goals in five of seven matches - 71%.

Considering all the above, we expect a high-scoring game, most likely with both teams scoring.
