Darmstadt vs Hamburger Betting Tips

2^nd placed 2. Bundesliga finishers Darmstadt started this season very well for a ecently promoted side.

They went unbeaten in their opening four Bundesliga matches and picked up nine points from their opening seven games.

But their good start to the season hasn’t lasted long, and they have now lost three of their last four Bundesliga matches. Their only win came in a 2-0 win against the struggling Augsburg.

This has seen them slip down to 13^th position in the Bundesliga, but a win on Saturday could lift them as high as 8^th in the table.

Hamburger started their season in the most difficult way, with a trip to the Allianz Arena to face Bayern Munich.

They came away with a 5-0 defeat under their belts, but then only lost one of their next five Bundesliga matches.

Three of those were victories, but like their opponents they have hit a spell of poor form in recent weeks. They have only won one of their last five league fixtures and been on the losing end of a scoreline three times.

This leaves them in 10^th position in the Bundesliga with 14 points from their opening 11 games, but with things tight in the table they could move up to 6^th with a win on Saturday.

Darmstadt have only picked up five points from a possible 18 at home this season, with three of their last four home league games ending in defeat.

Hamburger, on the other hand, have been more impressive away from home this season. They have won three of their last four away days in the Bundesliga against Borussia Monchengladbach, Ingolstadt, and Hoffenheim.

The bookies are completely split on this one, with both teams being given 17/10 odds for a win on Saturday. I think Hamburger’s away form and Darmstadt’s home form gives the visitors the advantage coming into this game, so I’m backing a Hamburger win on Saturday.
