How the crowd called it
Why we called it
Hamburg lost 2-0 at Dortmund after a 3-0 cup win at Verl in which Grønbæk scored twice; Daka is the lone striker with new signings El Ouahdi and Fábio Vieira set for first starts, while Omari and Røssing-Lelesiit are out and Muheim is doubtful. Mainz dominated Paderborn with 21 shots but drew 0-0, after a 9-0 cup win with four Tietz goals; Tietz and Becker start up front but Kohr, Martel and Nebel are injured. Bookmakers price this at roughly 39% Hamburg against 38% Mainz, a clear coin-flip, so we predict 1-1.
