Team News

Hamburg
Hertha Berlin
  • Expect an unchanged starting XI from the home side following an impressive away win against FC Köln last Friday.
  • Striker Robert Glatzel remains a doubt after missing the opening day fixture, while goalkeeper Matheo Raab is unavailable.
  • Centre-back Marc Oliver Kempf picked up an injury during the opening-day clash with Paderborn and will therefore miss this game at the Volksparkstadion.
  • Expect Marton Dardai to replace him at the back, while Michal Karbownik and Derry Scherhant are also in line for recalls.

Prediction

  • Hamburg gave FC Köln a baptism of fire on their return to the second tier with a quickfire early brace from Ransford Königsdörffer setting up a 2-1 away win at the RheinEnergieSTADION.
  • What will concern Stefan Baumgart is that his side allowed 28 shots from their opposition throughout the 90 minutes last Friday.
  • Hertha Berlin's second season back in the 2. Bundesliga started in the worst possible way last weekend. Cristian Fiel's side conceded three minutes either side of half time as they were subjected to a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Paderborn.
  • Promotion is the aim this season for the visitors, but they will need more summer recruitment to bolster this squad.
