On April 11, the "Volksparkstadion" will host the 29th round match of the German 2. Bundesliga, where "Hamburg" will play against "Eintracht Braunschweig". I propose a bet on goals/cards/winner for this match.
"Hamburg"
The team had long maintained its place in the Bundesliga 1 - they even held a record in this regard. But those achievements are in the past, and now everything has changed quite the opposite: they struggle to return. Moreover, they only managed to secure third place once, unsuccessfully, in the playoffs. At other times in the 2. Bundesliga, like last spring, they only finished fourth.
In the new season, Merlin Polzin's wards are making yet another attempt to finally finish the championship as leaders. They have very few losses, but plenty of draws. For instance, they ended 0-0 with "Elversberg" in late March. In the last round against "Nuremberg", they secured a smashing 3-0 victory.
"Eintracht Braunschweig"
The club alternates between occasional, increasingly rare successes and a plethora of frankly mediocre years. For instance, in 2013 they finally returned to the Bundesliga. But there, they only managed to take the last, eighteenth place. And then they twice dropped to the third division of Germany. Having returned from there again in 2022, they only managed to secure the "borderline" fifteenth place twice.
Now there's a threat of falling even lower. Which isn't surprising, considering they've only won three times since the start of October. Well, at least recently they've been collecting points, albeit one at a time, through draws - with "Ulm", "Hannover", "Preussen". And only in the last round against "Paderborn" did they manage to win a shootout, finishing 3-2.
Match facts
- "Hamburg" has won three times in the last five matches
- On average, "Hamburg" scores 2.18 goals and concedes 1.14 goals per match
- "Eintracht Braunschweig" has drawn three out of their last five matches.
H2H
"Hamburg" had seven consecutive victories in official matches. But in November, they lost 1-3 in Braunschweig.
Hamburg vs Eintracht Braunschweig Prediction
Bookmakers do not anticipate intrigue in such a pair. We agree: the division leader should win at home with a "-1 goal" handicap (odds - 1.6).
