Team News

Hamburg
Hannover
  • Ransford Königsdörffer should step into Hamburg's starting XI on Sunday but expect no further changes from Merlin Polzin.
  • Bakery Jatta and Davie Selke are both set for extended periods on the sidelines after undergoing surgery.
  • Striker Jessic Ngankam is suspended after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season, so expect Havard Nielsen to return to the starting XI here.
  • Fabian Kunze and Phil Neumann are both struggling with illnesses and are set to miss the trip to the Volksparkstadion.

Prediction

  • Winger Emir Sahiti scored a skilful solo goal late on against Hertha Berlin last weekend as a bumper Hamburg away crowd celebrated a 3-2 win at the Olympiastadion. Merlin Polzin's side have won three consecutive league games and are unbeaten in their last seven ahead of the clash with Hannover.
  • Florian Pick's 71st-minute strike cancelled out an Enzo Leopold goal last Sunday as Hannover were forced to settle for a point against Preussen Münster. Andre Breitenreiter's men have won just one of their last four 2.Bundesliga matches and face a daunting away fixture in gameweek 20.
