Opening the midweek fixtures sat with a two-point buffer from losing their status in the promotion positions, Hamburg do hold the second best-attacking record in the division. As for their recent run of results, Thursday’s guests have won just one of their last six Bundesliga II outings and have also won just one of their last 12 matches on the road. It should also be noted that 10 of their last 12 away fixtures have seen both teams find the net by full-time.
