Hamburger SV form and stats

Hamburger SV are yet to win a home game, having collected 2 points from their first two 2. Bundesliga games here at Volksparkstadion. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The home team returns to Volksparkstadion after being equal after 90 minutes with Heidenheim (placed 11th) on their last time out; the 2. Bundesliga game ended 0-0. The goalie Daniel Heuer Fernandes was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.34 out of ten. Fernandes stopped the opponent with four saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

In the match before that, Hamburger hosted Darmstadt 98 and drew the game 2-2.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Hamburger's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won one match, drawn one and lost two.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Hamburger SV at home in the league. 3 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Things could have gone better for Sandhausen in their 2. Bundesliga away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Erzgebirge Aue at their stadium, the result 3-1.
