Hamburger SV
Hamburger SV got destroyed by Koln last week, losing 4-1, which was their third straight Bundesliga defeat.
Besides losing that last game, Hamburger SV also lost two players due to red cards – attacking midfielders Immanuel Pherai and Fabio Vieira, who are now both suspended for this game.
There’s nothing positive from Hamburger SV coming in recent weeks. All their last three defeats came both at half-time and full-time, and they conceded seven goals.
When it comes to scoring, Hamburger SV is the worst team in Germany, having scored only eight goals since the start of the season.
Borussia Dortmund
Back-to-back wins against Koln and Augsburg put Borussia Dortmund in third position, seven points behind the leaders.
What has been impressive about Borussia Dortmund this season is how well they defend. An incredible fact is that they kept a clean sheet in 6 of their 9 Bundesliga games, which hasn’t happened before.
Borussia Dortmund was heavily beaten 4-1 by Manchester City in their Champions League match last midweek, but that defeat is likely to keep them alert and motivated for the domestic games.
So far, Borussia Dortmund has lost only against Bayern Munich in their five away games, winning three of their last four away matches.
The Betting Verdict
Hamburger SV is in poor shape, conceding lots of goals and struggling to score.
Borussia Dortmund is quite the opposite, with good domestic form and still in the chase for the top.
Quality should prevail in this match, so take Borussia Dortmund to win the game at good odds.
