There are few draws between these teams and we might think these teams play for victory only and aren’t satisfied with draw .
Hamburg has 4 consecutive away draws in the league and are hoping to continue their good run with only 3 defeats whole season but a bit too many draws . They had tough games away against Bayern Munchen in a game where they were equal to Bayern , another draws at Nurnberg , Leverkusen , Karlsruher . Most are tough games against top teams . Hamburg proved this season can match any team in Bundesliga and are a title contender . In order to keep close to Bayern they must win this game .
Wolfsburg played bad last away game against Bayern Munchen . They were harmless in attack and were a sure victim after Bayern scored first goal . We know that Bayern has best defense in the league . Hamburg is second best defensive team . I expect Wolfsburg to have again trouble breaking through Hamburg’s defense .
Regarding team news , there aren’t injured players and we should see on the field best possible line for every team . Wolfsburg isn’t exactly best team at home and I believe away win has enough value .
My pick:
Wolfsburg-Hamburg AH 0:0 away win @1.80 8/10
