Hamburger SV
- Hamburger SV have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five Bundesliga matches.

SV Werder Bremen
- SV Werder Bremen have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five Bundesliga fixtures.
- Werder Bremen, in ninth place in the Bundesliga table with 16 points from 12 games, are four points better off than Hamburg, who are in 13th with 12 points from as many games.
- Bremen will come into the matchup with confidence after beating Wolfsburg 2-1 at home.
Key Players
- Hamburger SV’s back-to-the-wall 2-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart in their most recent home match showed some real grit, given they’d lost a narrow contest to FC Augsburg in their previous away game.
- Jens Stage has scored four Bundesliga goals in ten appearances this campaign, including two in his last five, a run that has been vital for Die Werderaner.
- Stage’s vertical runs can complement Bremen’s short-passing, wide-overloading system, which Horst Steffen has moulded around a back four, but the HSV back-three and situational pressing could stifle the visitors’ transitions.
