Hamburg vs SC Freiburg Predictions

• Freiburg’s last three cup games produced over 2.5 total goals, twice AET.
• Eleven of Hamburg’s 16 home league games produced over 2.5 goals.
• Four of Freiburg’s last five away league games saw at least three match goals.

Second-tier Hamburg are looking to defy the odds

A first DFB-Pokal final since winning the cup in 1987 awaits Hamburg if they can beat Bundesliga opponents Freiburg in this semi-final encounter, though their last four semi-finals since then all ended in defeat.

The road to the semi-final wasn’t terribly difficult for Hamburg, as Freiburg are just the second top-flight team they will face in this edition of the competition. The only other was a quarter-final win over Cologne which required extra time and penalties.

Freiburg are out to make history

Christian Streich’s Freburg are seeking their first ever DFB Pokal final in club history and it would seem that fate is on their side.

Streich is the longest serving manager across Europe’s top-five leagues and he is currently overseeing Freiburg’s strongest campaign of this century, while they have already knocked out two fellow top-flight sides en route to this semi-final.

Freiburg’s only prior semi-final appearance in this competition ended in a 2-1 defeat, though we are going for a reversal in the correct score market with a 2-1 win. That correct score nicely compliments our main prediction of over 2.5 goals in what could be an interesting cup clash.
