Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.
Hamburger SV form and stats
As mentioned below, Hamburger SV are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 3 2. Bundesliga games.
Hamburger's previous game was a 2. Bundesliga match also played at home, ending 3-1 versus Wurzburger Kickers (placed 18th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Before that, Hamburger SV had a home game versus Erzgebirge Aue which ended with a victory 3-0.

St. Pauli form and stats
Still no away game victory in the 2. Bundesliga for St. Pauli with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Darmstadt 98 (placed 11th) in their previous outing. The 2. Bundesliga match ended in a draw 2-2. Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Nurnberg.
Pauli's last match (vs Darmstadt 98) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-2. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Rodrigo Zalazar Martínez.
