This midweek DFB Pokal brings Hamburger SV hosting Eintracht Frankfurt at home. The two sides met just recently in May, and Hamburger SV went away and won 2-1 on their turf, but this time it is a single-elimination cup game, so not everything that happened in the league can be applied directly. Hamburger SV came back to lose their latest league match 0-1 after previously stringing together wins, while Eintracht Frankfurt also just lost 0-1 in the league, but their attack can still be trusted, especially in the first half away from home where they average as high as 2.5 goals per game, while Hamburger SV at home in the first half score only 0.6 goals per game. The pattern of play should therefore be open and trading from the start. Eintracht Frankfurt will have more possession and push high, but Hamburger SV will have space to counter and often score in the middle of the first half to the start of the second half. The game is likely to finish with a small margin, and the hosts have a better chance of getting the result they want than the recent form numbers suggest.
