THE PREDICTION

One from four 2. Bundesliga fixtures does not represent the start Hamburger SV fans would have expected from their side this season with just two points acquired from their last three league games. They face a trip to Heidenheim who also sit on five points, but have scored five less goals that their opponents in that four-match period, also conceding four goals less. With pressure on the Hamburg players to improve recent results, head coach Tim Walter will likely deploy an attacking style of play despite playing away from home. Whilst this may see them maintain a high level of potency going forward, it won’t be expected to eradicate their frailties defensively, which Heidenheim should take advantage of. With that in mind, backing both teams to score appears to be the smart move here, especially when considering that all five matches played by Hamburg so far this season in all competitions have ended with both them and their opponents finding the net.
