Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
There will be fireworks when Hamburger SV and St. Pauli face each other in the local derby at Volksparkstadion. HSV played out a 1-1 draw with Dynamo Dresden in their first game of the year, with the team remaining in the race for promotion. Even though all Suhonen, Paschke, Leibold, Rorh, Vagnoman, and Ambrosius remain in the recovery room, we predict that die Rothosen are going to grab something from the derby as they are tough to beat at home.
St. Pauli, on the other hand, are on a three-match winless run in the German second tier. St. Pauli are leading the chase for automatic promotion, but given their dip in form, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh is on Africa Cup of Nations, while all Afeez Aremu, Jannes Wieckhoff, and Christopher Avevor miss out with injuries for the league leaders.
