A high-scoring encounter is expected at Holstein-Stadion in Kiel where the hosts will welcome Hamburger SV, one of the strongest sides in the German second division. Hamburger SV is a Bundesliga quality team but they often found themselves relegated in the recent seasons, so they will be aiming to get back to the elite as soon as possible. Therefore, they need to keep the winning pace and the first obstacle is Holstein Kiel.

The hosts are a mid-table side that will have a hard time fighting for the top 3. So far, they haven't been able to find consistency, and I doubt they will find meaningful points against superior team from Hamburg. Holstein did show some solid defending in the opening games they played on the home turf, but stopping HSV's attack will be a difficult task.

HSV and Hansa Rostock are the only two teams that are yet to register a draw in 2. Bundesliga. That perfectly describes HSV's approach to each match - they will be looking to outscore the opponent, and netting less than two goals against HSV won't be enough for the opposition as they almost always score 2 or more goals. Currently, the visitors are on the seven-game winning streak in away games which is an awe-inspiring record and they are quite likely to extend it here. In almost all of the aforementioned away games they netted at least twice, so I also foresee at least two goals in Kiel's net.

The quality gap between the two sides is clear - the away team should be a bigger favorite and I expect the odds to go down as the kickoff approaches. A final score of 1-2 is quite possible!

一场高比分的对决将在德国基尔的荷尔斯坦球场举行，东道主将迎来德国乙级联赛最强的球队之一汉堡SV。汉堡SV是一支德甲强队，但他们发现自己在最近几个赛季经常降级，所以他们的目标是尽快回到精英行列。因此，他们需要保持胜利的步伐，而第一个障碍是霍尔斯坦·基尔。

东道主是中游球队，想要争夺前3名将会很困难。到目前为止，他们还没有找到稳定的状态，我怀疑他们能否在对阵来自汉堡的强队时拿到有意义的积分。荷尔斯泰因在主场进行的揭幕战中确实表现出了稳固的防守，但阻止HSV的进攻将是一项艰巨的任务。

HSV和Hansa Rostock是仅有的两支还没有在2局中取得平局的球队。德甲。这完美地描述了HSV每场比赛的策略——他们会寻求超过对手的进球，在对阵HSV的比赛中，进不到两个球对对手来说是不够的，因为他们几乎总是进2个或更多的球。目前，客队在客场取得了七连胜，这是一个令人敬畏的记录，他们很有可能在这里延续这一记录。在前面提到的几乎所有的客场比赛中，他们至少进了两个球，所以我也预测基尔至少进了两个球。

双方在质量上的差距是显而易见的——客场球队应该更受欢迎，我预计随着开球的临近，胜算会下降。最终的1-2分是很有可能的!
