Prediction SpVgg Greuther Fürth vs Karlsruher SC 2025/2026 season – Betting Tips for the 2. Bundesliga on 24/10/2025

Match outlook: momentum, standings and recent scars

The curtain rises at Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer on October 24 and the scoreboard narrative already favors Karlsruher SC. Fürth sit 14th with 10 points from nine matches while Karlsruher are up in seventh with 15 points — an advantage that shows in the numbers. Fürth’s defensive record is worrying; 24 goals conceded across the campaign and zero clean sheets at home underline how porous they’ve been. Their last outing compounded those concerns, a heavy 6-0 defeat at Elversberg on October 19 that leaves a bruised dressing room and questions about confidence.

Karlsruher arrive with far fewer blemishes. They have conceded 12 goals in nine games, produced four clean sheets and display better attacking balance with 13 goals scored. On the attacking metrics they also impress: 131 total shots and an average of 14.56 shots per game compared to Fürth’s 104 and 11.56 averages — a reflection of the greater offensive threat Karlsruher carry into this fixture. The recent head-to-head backs the visitors, too: Karlsruher won the meeting in April 2025 by 1-0.

Form, style and what to expect on the night

Form lines suggest Karlsruher are the steadier outfit. Their latest sequence shows five wins, three draws and just two losses, while Fürth have endured a rollercoaster with more defeats and only four wins in the same sample. Beyond outcomes, the match data hints at an open contest: Fürth’s home profile has seen a high percentage of over 2.5-goal games (77.78%), while Karlsruher’s fixtures have been more mixed but still produced five over-2.5 results this season.

Karlsruher’s superior attack-to-defense balance and higher averages in dangerous attacks (50.44 vs. Fürth’s 34.67) suggest they will press and create the clearer chances. Fürth, after conceding nine goals at home and surrendering big scorelines recently, will be under pressure to tighten up quickly — a tall order given the visitors’ consistency.

Betting suggestion

Based on form, underlying numbers and betting markets, the strongest single-market pick is a Karlsruher SC away win in the 1X2 market. Bookmakers offer Karlsruher at 2.40 while the home win is 2.65, reflecting the visitors’ edge in position, chance creation (131 total shots versus Fürth’s 104) and defensive solidity (four clean sheets to Fürth’s zero). Back Karlsruher to win, but consider a measured stake given the natural unpredictability of derby-style matches and Fürth’s home support at the 15,000-capacity Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer.
