Hamburger SV

After winning 3-0 against Wehen Wiesbaden, Hamburger SV drew 1-1 against Greuther Furth last weekend. That was another setback in their Bundesliga promotion race, as Hamburger SV dropped out of the top three sides. They are now a point behind third Fortuna Dusseldorf before this round, which increases pressure on them to perform well and win this game.

Hamburger SV is still the second-best home team in the 2.Bundesliga. However, keep in mind that they lost four of their last six games in Hamburg! They are without a draw at home, winning nine of 13 games, which makes them a favorite in this game against relegation-threatened Kaiserslautern.

Speaking of Kaiserslautern, Hamburger SV has not beaten them in three games, drawing twice. Their first match this season ended in a 3-3 draw, which also hurt Hamburger SV more.

Hamburger SV’s influential left-back Miro Muheim (5 goals, 2 assists!) is suspended for this game with five yellow cards. He scored Hamburger SV’s goal in last week’s 1-1 draw against Greuther Furth.

Kaiserslautern

Kaiserslautern is third from the bottom in the 2.Bundesliga, and has many problems, yet they achieved major success last Tuesday. They won 0-2 away against Saarbrucken in the DFB Cup semifinal and reached the final, where they will face Bayer Leverkusen at the end of May in Berlin! They might drop out of the 2.Bundesliga, but at the same time, they have chances to play in Europe next season! Amazing stuff.

2.Bundesliga relegation battle is heating up, and Kaiserslautern is in the middle of it. They are only a point behind safety with seven games remaining, so they have many chances to save themselves. Their next two opponents are pretty difficult – Hamburger SV and Greuther Furth, but they also have problems, so Kaiserslautern hopes to capitalize on that.

However, Kaiserslautern has won just twice in 13 away matches this season, which is why they sit on relegation spots. They lost seven of those games, which sums up their way of playing at away grounds.

The Betting Verdict

Hamburger SV is definitely the better side here, with quality and form on their side.

Kaiserslautern also had a cup game to play last midweek, which will affect their preparations, while Hamburger SV is fully focused on winning as many as they can until the end to finish among the top three sides.

Although Hamburger SV has been in shaky form recently, I think they will be up to their task this weekend and win against Kaiserslautern at good odds.
