THE PREDICTION

Two teams in excellent recent form collide at the Volksparkstadion as Hamburger SV host Darmstadt 98, both of whom played big parts in the epic promotion battle that captivated the 2. Bundesliga last season. Whilst Hamburg have won their last three in all competitions, Darmstadt are on the back of four consecutive victories, conceding just one goal across those matches. When you take into account how well both sides are playing recently from a defensive perspective, the likelihood is that this may prove a low-scoring contest as neither take any unnecessary risks, aware of their opponents’ threat and that losing three points to a potential promotion rival even this early on in the season would be a blow. Expect under 2.5 goals to be scored here, regardless of the final outcome.
