Team News

Hamburg
Karlsruher SC
  • Tim Walter will have Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer available this weekend after Ghana were eliminated from the Africa Cup of Nations.
  • Defensive duo William Mikelbrencis and Sebastian Schonlau are both doubtful for the visit of Karlsruher.
  • Christian Eichner could make one change this weekend with Leon Jensen starting after serving his suspension last time out.
  • Nicolai Rapp should feature on the bench at the Volksparkstaion after signing from Werder Bremen.

Prediction

  • Hamburg were outshot 26-8 by Schalke on their trip to the VELTINS-Arena last weekend, but first-half goals from Immanuel Pherai and Laszlo Benes earned Tim Walter's side all three points. Consecutive league victories have moved the home side within one point of second-placed Holstein Kiel heading into gameweek 19.
  • Karlsruher scored early in both halves last time out as they claimed a deserved 2-1 home win against 2.Bundesliga basement boys Osnabrück. Christian Eichner's men are now unbeaten in six league matches ahead of this tricky away clash at the Volksparkstadion.
