THE PREDICTION

Hamburger SV appear to be back on track after their five-match winless run, recording back-to-back wins over the last week to maintain the pressure on leaders Holstein Kiel. Daniel Thioune’s side are the highest scorers in Bundesliga 2 after putting four past Sandhausen in midweek, and they have scored the first goal in five of their last seven games. With the confidence and momentum from that midweek win, there is a good chance they will start this game on the front foot and look to get an early goal against a side they will be expected to beat in Karlsruher SC, so consider the Team to Score First market for this one.
