Four-time German Champion, Kaiserslautern, will host a game against a relegation contender, Sandhausen.
Kaiserslautern were in big financial problems over the past years, but the club seems to be on the right track. In the last season, they gained promotion through the playoff and flirted with reaching the playoff for Bundesliga for most of this season. But the coach, Dirk Schuster, already said their goal is to establish themselves as a stable 2. Bundesliga team before advancing to Bundesliga.
After losing three of the last four games, the playoff is now eight points away. They struggled offensively in the previous four games and scored only in one of those.
Sandhausen have been a 2. Bundesliga team for ten seasons in a row, but now they are facing a possible relegation to 3. Liga. In those ten seasons, they were mainly around the lower part of the league's table. After 23 rounds in the 2022/23 season, Sandhausen are tied with Jahn Regensburg for the last place in the 2. Bundesliga.
Since the winter break, their bad results have continued. After the restart, Sandhausen won the first match, but in the following six games, they only won one point. Offensively, they have been atrocious in those six matches and have scored only once!
Kaiserslautern vs Sandhausen pick: Both teams to score - NO
Kaiserslautern are in poor form, winning just three points in the previous four games. In those four games, they have scored only in one of them, against Greuther Furth. They have been solid defensively at home and allowed only two goals in the previous four home games.
Sandhausen tried to change their momentum by replacing the coach recently, but it failed to give any results for now. Their previous six matches had resulted in one draw and five losses with a goal differential of 1:13.
Both teams are in a scoring crisis (Sandhausen especially), so we should see at least one team fail to score.

Kaiserslautern Team News
In his recent interview, Kaiserslautern's coach talked about promotion chances. He said the promotion wasn't one of the goals after achieving promotion in 3. Liga last season. "We will not reformulate our goals. There is no reason for that," he said.
Kaiserslautern will miss their starting defensive midfielder, Julian Niehus, due to a one-match suspension after collecting five yellow cards in previous matches.
Lars Bunning is out for this match due to torn ankle ligament, and Robin Bormuth and Kenny Prince Redondo are questionable due to muscular problems.
