Wolfsburg take on the visitors Hamburger in the match of round 17 in German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, January 21st at Volkswagen Arena (Wolfsburg).
Wolfsburg ended the first part of the season with two wins over Eintracht Frankfurt, 1-0, and Borussia Monchengladbach, 2-1. However, poor results showed in previous matches didn’t allowed them to move further 13th place in the standings with 16 points gained in 16 matches and 15-24 goal difference. While the first team was on break, the club sold skilled Draxler, who didn’t want to battle with the rest of teammates and replaced him with Malli from Mainz, who has a lot to prove. Such changes should improve spirits within the team and help to keep up with solid results. We should note that Wolfsburg have the worst home record in the league with one win and five points gained in eight home matches.

Hamburger failed first two months of the campaign but then found recourses to turn things around, recording three wins, two draws and one defeat in six matches. Such streak of positive results allowed the team to leave the last place of Bundesliga standings and move on 16th position with 13 points after 16 matches. The visiting side have the same away record as the hosts have at home – one win and five points gained in eight matches.
Wolfsburg are undefeated in their head-to-heads against Hamburger since 2011, for 11 matches in a row, taking five wins and drawing six games. Both teams have already failed their season but excellent undefeated series of the Wolfs in their matches with Hamburger and home-field advantage suggest that Wolfsburg should be the winners of this clash.
Prediction for the match: Wolfsburg to win.
