A must-win for the runners-up!

An eastern derby is coming up with Magdeburg against Eisenach, and Wettbasis is sending a tip onto the court! The home team are among the top favorites for the Bundesliga title and have started the new season in style with a win at Lemgo.

The men from the Werner-Aßmann-Halle in Thuringia also celebrated a successful start to the season, defeating DHfK Leipzig in front of their own fans. However, the ThSV now faces a completely different challenge in the form of the runners-up and reigning Champions League title holders.

In addition, the handball players from Börde can rely on their home advantage against coach Sebastian Hinze’s team: last season, Wiegert’s team won 15 of their 17 home games in the league.

Magdeburg – Eisenach Head-to-head comparison / H2H record

The Thuringians have lost all ten competitive games between Magdeburg and last season’s eleventh-placed team! Moreover, looking back over the past 24 years, Magdeburg have won every single Bundesliga match between these two teams. The bookmakers assume that this balance of power will remain unchanged. In fact, the betting odds for Magdeburg against Eisenach are once again very clearly in favor of the home team.

Magdeburg – Eisenach Tip

Magdeburg is a three-time German champion and narrowly missed out on a fourth title last season, finishing one point behind Füchse Berlin. However, the hosts are aiming for a fourth championship this season and once again have an excellent squad.

One example is Omar Ingi Magnusson. The Icelander, who won the top scorer title at the 2022 European Championships, scored no less than 15 goals in his SC’s opening game at Lemgo!

Given the difference in class between the two teams, the Magdeburg vs. Eisenach odds for a home win by eight or more goals appear lucrative. This is also supported by the fact that the hosts will be particularly motivated in front of their own fans in their first home game of the season.
