The 2024/25 season was Karlruher's sixth in a row in the second level of football in Germany. Last year, they finished fifth, with only five points less than the promotion playoff. It seemed unlikely for the Baden-Württemberg team to again fight for the top, but after seven rounds, Karlsruher are third on the table with two points fewer than the league leader, Dusseldorf. Christian Eichner's team are one of four unbeaten teams so far. Last weekend, Karlsruher played 4-4 on the road against FC Koln. Guests fought bravely after the home side had a 3-0 lead in the first half and avoided defeat. 

Darmstadt last season played in Bundesliga. Many expected from the Hesse city to fight for promotion to return to the German strongest division, but they are one of the worst in 2. Bundesliga so far with only five points from seven matches. In the previous league round, Darmstadt lost 2-1 at home against Magdeburg. The home side finished the match with xG of 2.62, while guests had 1.06, but Darmstadt still stayed empty-handed. 

Karlsruher vs Darmstadt pick: Karlsruher to win

Darmstadt's biggest problem this season is their poor defense. They allowed 16 goals in seven matches. On the other hand, Karlsruher have the second-best attack, with 16 goals so far. We should expect the home side to win at BBBank Wildpark on Friday evening.

Karlsruher team news

Karlsruher is doing wonders this season. One of the best and most deserving of the outstanding start is Budu Zivzivadze. The 30-year-old Georgian has six goals and two assists in seven matches so far. We should expect Zivzivadze to be the focal point of Karlsruher's attacking line on Friday, too. 

Bambasa Conte, Marcel Franke, Efe-Kaan Sihlaroglu, and Robin Bormuth are injured and will not play on Friday against Darmstadt.
