Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Sparkassen-Erzgebirgsstadion will host Friday’s football game between Aue and Hamburger SV, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the 2021/2022 season. Aue made a slow start to the season, and, no doubt, the team’s main goal is to secure the 2. Bundesliga survival. The rock-bottom side have yet to record a win in the new campaign, but they should not be looking for three points in the clash against the promotion-chasing side.
Both Kuhn and Bussmann are pushing for a start after their got their names on the scoresheet in the 3-2 loss at Regensburg. HSV, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team sharing the spoils with Nurnberg, while beating both Sandhausen and Werder Bremen. Given Aue’s shaky defence, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors, who are eyeing a quick return to the German top flight. HSV midfielder Bastian Schonlau is back from suspension.
