Only one of these two teams can be satisfied with the season so far, and that is certainly Hannover, which is firmly in the middle of the table and very far from the relegation zone where HSV is located, so it is clear that they cannot be satisfied. HSV has not celebrated for seven rounds, but at least they avoided defeat in the last round and played a draw in Leipzig. Hannover has been oscillating lately, and after a victory and a draw, they were defeated in the last round on their field. In the first part of the season, Hannover has defeated HSV with 2-0.

Hamburger SV

As the championship progresses, it seems that HSV is playing worse and they can only hope that the point is won in the last round on a very difficult hosting at Leipzig, is the announcement that better days for this team are coming. Otherwise this could really be a season after which HSV will for the first time in history move to a lower ranking of the competition. They also had problems in previous seasons and somehow they have managed to stay safe and they hope to be able to do the same this time.

At the end of November they won the last time and after that they played three draws, while they were defeated four times. After a home defeat from the last ranked Cologne two rounds ago, they have replaced coach Gisdol and Hollerbach was on the bench in Leipzig. It started well, and he made a lot of changes in the starting lineup, and now he probably will not change anything in the hope of finally winning.

Probable lineups Hamburger SV: Mathenia – G.Sakai, K.Papadopoulos, van Drongelen – Diekmeier, Jung, Walace, D.Santos – Hunt – Wood, Kostic

Hannover 96

With ten points more than the relegation zone before this round, Hannover is quite calm, although they lost a bit unexpectedly in their field from Wolfsburg in the last round. There is a lot of oscillation in Hannover's game and they are constantly losing and winning, and playing draws, and the mentioned defeat has spoiled all the good draw that was two rounds ago played against Schalke away. In duel with Wolfsburg, they have failed to score after a long time. They did not manage to create a lot of opportunities and complete team has simply failed, and even a very busy striker Fullkrug has not had his day.

Coach Breitenreiter made two changes in Gelsenkirchen and one was forced, because Korb could not play because of yellow cards. Newcomer Elez got his chance, but did not show up, while Harnik played instead of Bebo in the offensive part of the team. The result shows that the changes were not good and now Korb and Bebo are returning, while Sorg could be on the bench, as well as Harnik.

Probable lineups Hannover 96: Tschauner – Elez, S.Sane, Anton – Korb, Ostrzolek – Schwegler, Fossum – Klaus, Bebou – Fullkrug

Verdict:

HSV is under big pressure in this duel and they should not lose, while Hannover is quite relieved and they can be dangerous. HSV simply has to try to win and we expect them to dominate, and it is not excluded that guests end up with a draw.
