In the last 5 fixtures the visitors scored 11 goals (2.2 per game) versus the hosts’ 8 goals (1.6 per game) and have a lower share of matches without scoring 21% compared to Hannover’s 29%. Considering the identical goals-per-game average (1.43 vs 1.43), Hannover’s higher chance creation (xG 1.86 vs 1.49) and Paderborn’s better defensive organisation, the most likely outcome is a draw.
