Bundesliga Tips: Elversberg - St. Pauli
In the following article I take a look at the 2. Bundesliga and look ahead to this Friday's clash between Elversberg and St. Pauli. Hamburg are currently the number one team in the league and for me they are the team to beat. I will be backing St. Pauli, but I will not be sweeping Elversberg's strong season under the carpet. The Saarlanders currently sit in 7th place, which is impressive for newcomers. The team has also not lost for a long time, but I assume that it is now time for them to start winning again. St. Pauli are a different proposition.

St. Pauli without a defeat so far this season
There is no better team in the 2. Liga than St. Pauli, that is for sure. Marcel Hartel has been the best player of the season so far, and on Tuesday they beat Schalke 04 in the cup. In the last few weeks, the Kiezkicker have picked up a number of good wins, including two against Schalke, against Nuremberg, against Kiel and even against Hertha Berlin. The confidence level is high and young coach Hürzeler is doing an excellent job and sooner or later we will see him in the Bundesliga, most likely with St. Pauli next season. Johannes Eggestein and Simon Zoller are two midfielders with Bundesliga experience, and generally the quality of the squad is very high and a good mix of experience and young talent.

My football prediction for the game Elversberg v St. Pauli
Elversberg are in good form, but will be pushed to their limits. St Pauli will control the game and the tempo and eventually create the chances they need. I do not expect a 3-0 drubbing, but rather a methodical game with an appropriate result. Qualifying for the Pokal will give St. Pauli momentum and they will continue their positive trend and establish themselves at the top of the 2. Bundesliga.
