Pre-game facts show that Hamburg:

The stats don’t lie, and Greuther Furth have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 8 goals overall. At the back, Greuther Furth have seen their frailties exposed. It will be interesting to find out whether or not that trend will be sustained into this next match.

Thanks to a completely healthy group available to choose from, the Greuther Furth boss Alexander Zorniger doesn’t have any fitness worries at all before this game.

We reckon that Greuther Fürth might make use of a 3-3-2-2 lineup with a starting lineup of Andreas Linde, Sebastian Griesbeck, Gideon Jung, Gian-Luca Itter, Marco Meyerhofer, Max Christiansen, Marco John, Branimir Hrgota, Julian Green, Ragnar Ache and Armindo Sieb.
