German 2nd Bundesliga: Holstein Kiel @ Hamburg SV

What will be the match result?

Holstein Kiel: Win or Draw

@ Hamburg SV: Win

 

Current odds:

Holstein Kiel: Win or Draw: (+125)

Hamburg SV: Win: (-167)

 

Hamburg have managed just two league wins in eight matches (W2, D3, L3). They’ll be particularly unhappy with their defensive record in that run, having managed just one clean sheet, and having conceded 2+ goals in five of the fixtures. That said, they have kept a clean sheet in five of their eight home fixtures vs sides currently inside the top ten.

Holstein Kiel are looking to return to winning ways after seeing just one victory in seven league matches (W1, D2, L4). A big issue in that run has been letting opponents take the initiative; they conceded the opening goal in five of those games, with three of those opening goals coming inside the opening 30 minutes.

A good omen for the visitors is that they haven’t lost any of their previous three H2H matches (W2, D1). Additionally, they’ve led at half-time in four of their previous six away league matches (W2, D2, L2), and won the first half in each of their previous two meetings with Hamburg.
