Hamburger to boost promotion hopes against Karlsruher
4965

Hamburger SV are one of the historical football clubs in the German game. However, they have not played in the German top-flight since 2018 after suffering relegation to the second tier.

It seems that every season they are in contention for promotion, but somehow shoot themselves in the foot and fail to return to the Bundesliga.

This season could be heading the same way for Daniel Thioune’s team, who face a home game against Karlsruher on Thursday night.

The home team are third-place in the table, in the promotion play-off spot, but a poor run of form has seen them fall three points behind second-place Bochum in the race for automatic promotion.

A 1-1 draw against Jahn Regensburg last time out means that Der Dino are on a four-game winless run. The failure to secure a return to the German top-flight hoodoo could continue if they don’t start picking up wins soon.

One man who has done his best to fire Hamburger SV back into the German top-flight is forward Simon Terodde, who has scored 20 goals in the Bundesliga.2 this season.

The visitors may feel like they have an outside chance of catching Hamburger in third place, but in truth, it seems that they have very little to play for until the end of the Bundesliga.2 campaign.

A six-game winless run in the Bundesliga.2 has prevented Karlsruher SC from mounting a challenge for promotion as we head into the final stretch of the league campaign.

The visitors have drawn five of those six winless games, though, losing just once in the process.

One big positive for Christian Eichner’s team is their recent away record in the Bundesliga.2, as they are unbeaten in their last six away games, having recorded five wins in the process.

Forebet predicts that the home team will boost their chances of promotion by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
