THE TEAM NEWS
HAMBURGER SV
- Hamburger SV surrendered top spot in Bundesliga 2 again last weekend as they fell to a surprising 2-1 defeat at promoted side Osnabruck.
- Coach Hecking is boosted by the return of winger Jatta from a two-match ban but he is still sweating over the fitness of striker Hinterseer, who missed the last match.
- Captain Hunt should be available again after missing the trip to Osnabruck through illness, while Kinsombi is likely to be recalled in place of Moritz in midfield.
Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Daniel Heuer; Narey, Jung, Van Drongelen, Leibold; Dudziak, Fein, Kinsombi; Jatta, Hintersser, Kittel
Unavailable: Vagnoman (Injured), Gyamerah (Injured)
Doubtful: Amaechi (Injured), Hinterseer (Injured), Hunt (Illness)
HEIDENHEIM
- Heidenheim moved up to fourth in the table with a 1-0 win at home to Greuther Furth on Sunday and can close the gap on their opponents to three points with a victory here.
- Thiel and Thomalla remain sidelined but coach Schmidt has no fresh personnel issues and is likely to field an unchanged line-up.
- Leipertz was preferred to Otto up front against Greuther Furth and is expected to keep his place despite now going six league appearances without scoring.
Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Muller; Busch, Husing, Mainka, Theuerkauf; Schnatterer, Dorsch, Griesbeck,Kerschbaumer; Kleindienst, Leipertz
Unavailable: Thiel (Injured), Thomalla (Injured)

THE PREDICTION
Hamburg have been pretty formidable at home this season but they have not registered a clean sheet since October. Heidenheim are in decent form and have only failed to score in one of their last 11 league matches, so back both of these promotion chasers to find the net.
