The team has shown consistency in their offensive play, averaging 1.29 goals per match and maintaining a possession rate of 49.79%. Their defense, conceding an average of 1 goal per game, will be crucial against Braunschweig's attack. Eintracht Braunschweig, on the other hand, has struggled defensively, conceding 1.79 goals per match.

Historically, Hannover has had the upper hand in head-to-head encounters, which could play a psychological role in this fixture.
