St. Pauli vs. Kiel Tipp & Quoten, 25.07.2021 – 13:30 o’clock
Even though there has been the European Championship this summer, some football fans will probably be pleased that it is finally starting again. At least the 2nd Bundesliga starts this weekend. Among other things, as usual with games on Sunday. One of them will be the match between St. Pauli and Holstein Kiel. Kiel is easily favoured for this game, but the odds are actually quite balanced. St. Pauli is a strong home team that showed two faces in the back and forth round last season. Holstein Kiel actually not, because the team has consistently shown a strong season. However, the promotion was not achieved because one had to admit defeat to 1. FC Köln in the relegation. Now the next attempt is to be made, possibly with three points from the first game of the season. At the Millerntor Stadium, the referee whistles at the game at 13:30 (CET).
(Stand der Quoten: 21.07.2021, 18:24 Uhr)
FC St. Pauli has had a really strange season. It’s odd because you were the fourth worst team in the league in the first leg, but the fourth best in the second leg. In this respect, the team had great potential, but only half of it was used. Forecasts for the new season are difficult, because the question is which St. Pauli the team will build on. In your own stadium, you can make it difficult for any opponent in good form. In this respect, St. Pauli will go into the game with top motivation in order to be able to win the first win of the season directly from the start.
Timo Schultz is the manager of FC St. Pauli and has held this position for over a year. Before the start of the season, St. Pauli played some test matches against other teams. Among other things, Hertha BSC Berlin scored a 2-2 draw. But it’s only from Sunday that it really counts and a victory against Kiel would be so important. Above all, St. Pauli wants to become a stronger home team again this season.
St. Pauli is concerned about injuries, especially with Christopher Avevor, Franz Roggow, Sebastian Ohlsson and James Lawrence, all of whom probably won’t be able to sustain on Sunday.

For Holstein Kiel, of course, this was a bitter story. The team was so close to playing in the 1st Bundesliga for the first time. But just as in 2018, you had to admit defeat in the relegation after a really strong season. At that time it was VfL Wolfsburg who lost this time to 1. FC Köln. The first leg could still be won with 1:0, but was then clearly defeated in the second leg with 1:5. In this respect, it would be probably best for Kiel if they were to finish in one of the first two places at the end of the season. But this will be extremely difficult for the competition in the league.
Once again, Ole Werner will be the coach of the season. Werner has been a coach at Holstein Kiel since October 2019 and thus inherited Tim Walter. In his first season with Kiel, Werner only managed to finish in 11th place, but in the last season he finished in 3rd place with a strong 62 points. Kiel has also played preparatory games. VfL Wolfsburg were beaten 1-0, and there was also a 2-2 draw against Hallescher SC. Both games were good for preparation, but only provide limited information about the Kiel form.
For the game at Millerntor, the players Stefan Thesker, Timon Weiner and Ahmet Arslan will be missing.

FC St. Pauli will be very happy to be able to complete this season opener against Kiel at home. Here there was a 1-1 victory against Kiel last season, in the home game before even a 2-1 victory. Away from home, however, St. Pauli lost the last three appearances against Keil and last May even lost a particularly painful 0-4. Now, however, a new season begins and St. Pauli is more likely to continue the last half-round, in which one could even score one point more than Kiel. But the people of Kiel have to be judged as a strong team. In this constellation, therefore, the tip for a draw between St. Pauli and Kiel.
