The Cloverleaves are one of the best teams in the competition, and are placed third in the table.
They need a surplus of five points to get to the top of the table, or an additional one point to be placed second in the table -which would mean they would be in possession of a direct-promotion spot to the Bundesliga.
Meanwhile, Veilchen have been on an inconsistent run for quite some time, and their only wins in the past several match-days have come against some of the absolute worst teams in the 2.Bundesliga.
Going on, Stefan Leitl's men also have a great h2h record at this venue in the past two decades.
As such, expect Furth to have the upper hand this Friday at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer.
Greuther Furth vs Erzgebirge Aue: Head-to-head (h2h)

Greuther Furth vs Erzgebirge Aue Prediction
Leitl's men were unbeaten in 17 of their previous 21 overall games, and they had scored two or more goals in 11 of their past 15 match-ups. Note that they have lost just thrice this whole season at home.
On the other hand, their counterparts were winless in nine of their past fifteen overall games, and they had won just four times on the road after 2019.
On top of that, the Cloverleaves also have a dominating h2h record at this venue in the 21 st century, and have scored in plenty in the process.
Considering all these factors, expect Furth to deliver a winning performance this Friday.
