📋 Team News: Hamburg
Dennis Hadzikadunic (Inner ligament tear in ankle joint), Matheo Raab (Broken hand), Bakery Jatta (Syndesmotic ligament tear) and Noah Katterbach (Cruciate ligament tear) aren’t available for Hamburg gaffer Merlin Polzin.

📰 Team News: Ulm 1846
In an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the Ulm 1846 manager Robert Lechleiter to be concerned about. Johannes Reichert (Knock) won’t be in action.
There’s a good chance that Die Spatzen appear most likely to utilise a 3-4-1-2 system with a starting lineup of Niclas Thiede, Tom Gaal, Philipp Strompf, Niklas Kolbe, Bastian Allgeier, Max Brandt, Dennis Dressel, Aaron Keller, M. Krattenmacher, Semir Telalovic and Felix Higl.
🧠 Prediction
Looking at these two teams, we feel that Hamburg have it within them to get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
At the other end, Ulm 1846 could well find it tough to make a breakthrough - but, we do see them hitting back at some stage, too.
Our selection here is for a decent 3-1 margin for Hamburg by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
