Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Hamburger SV will try to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Elversberg when they take on Osnabruck in the 2. Bundesliga round 7. Die Rothosen have a chance to regain top position in the standings and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Violets. Mario Vusovic is banned for the match, while all Immanuel Pheral, Miro Muheim, Lukasz Poreba, Anssi Suhonen, and Noah Katterbach remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The hosts, on the other hand, do not seem to be competitive at this level, with the team collecting only one point in total from possible 18 to date. The rock-bottom side obviously struggle at the back, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the promotion-chasing visitors. You should bear in mind that Osnabruck suffered an embarrassing 7-0 loss to Hannover in their last league match. Nicklas Wiemann is banned for the match, while both Emeka Oduah and Timo Beermann remain in the recovery room.
