Hamburg vs Dynamo Dresden Predictions

• Hamburg have won seven of their last 11 home league games.
• Both teams have not scored in the last ten Dynamo Dresden away games.
• Seven of the last 11 Hamburg home games have featured at least three goals.

Goalscorer duel in prospect as Hamburg host Dynamo

Hamburg are fancied to keep up their 100 per cent start to the season against 3.Liga champions Dynamo Dresden on Sunday.

HSV changed coach in the summer after failing to achieve promotion back to the Bundesliga for the third season running and the early signs of Tim Walter’s reign are good.

Der Dino won 3-1 at relegated Schalke last Friday with new signing Robert Glatzel on the scoresheet.

He looks a better player than the one who scored 13 goals for Heidenheim prior to joining Cardiff City and will surely get good service from this attack-minded Hamburg team.

Likewise, there is a reliable goal-getter in the Dresden ranks as Christoph Daferner hit a double in Dynamo’s 3-0 home win over fellow-promoted side Ingolstadt.

Hamburg home games consistently featured three goals or more last season and, with both sides having scored triples on opening weekend, we like the chance of this one doing too.

Dynamo were rarely pushed to score more than two goals in their title-winning campaign but we think they will have to put the hammer down to stay with Hamburg in a high-scoring game this Sunday.

Take Hamburg, who were good at home last term, to win with over 2.5 goals and we also recommend a 3-1 correct score play as that outcome occurred more than any other in the previous campaign.
