THE PREDICTION
Despite normally being lower down in the league pyramid than their city rivals, St. Pauli are actually unbeaten in their last three meetings with Hamburger SV. And they go into this one in impressive form, having recorded four successive league wins for the first time since May 2017. Timo Schultz’s men are also scoring more regularly than they were earlier in the campaign, finding the net at least once in each of their last 10 Bundesliga 2 games - although they have only recorded one clean sheet in that period. Hamburg are looking to bounce back from their shock 3-2 defeat at basement boys Wurzburger Kickers and maintain their position at the top. They also lead the table when it comes to goals scored and have drawn a blank in just one of their last 15 away league outings, so it should be an entertaining local derby under the floodlights with goals at both ends.
