MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: AWAY WIN
Uwe Neuhaus' Bielefeld are coming off a 4-3 win away at mid-table side Dresden in midweek. The team have not been doing well since late September, despite a promising start to the league campaign. They have won only twice in their last 12 league matches, drawing three times and losing the remaining seven league outings. Their form has been particularly bad at home. Since beating Jahn Regensburg 5-3 on their own turf five months ago, the club have failed to grab all three points in front of their fans, securing two draws and losing five of their seven home league matches.
Hamburg hosted relegation-candidates Sandhausen in their midweek league fixture, winning 2-1. The team went into the winter break in exceptional form, losing only once at Holstein Kiel whilst winning seven and drawing four of their last 12 league matches in 2018. No other team has snatched more points on their travels than Hamburg with 22 points from nine away leagues matches.
Bielefeld have to improve a lot if they want a decent return from this league game. That is unlikely to happen and I can see only one winner here. Hamburg should be far too strong for the struggling Bielefeld.
SECOND PREDICTION: ODD/EVEN – ODD
Odd total goals have been scored in all of Hamburg’s last two away wins in league action. I expect that trend to continue.
HEAD TO HEAD
There has only been one league meeting between these sides over the last decade when Hamburg beat Bielefeld 3-0 at home earlier this season.
