Erzgebirge Aue hosts Hamburger SV in round 20 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Friday, February 5th at Sparkassen-Erzgebirgsstadion (Aue)
Previously, Erzgebirge Aue did not rise above 14th place after returning to Bundesliga 2. But at the end of last season, the Violets managed to climb to 7th position. Now they are trying to gain a foothold in the positions won in 2020. But the team is too unstable so far, and successful meetings alternate with failures. At the end of January, Aue managed to consistently beat Osnabrück away and Wurzburger Kickers at home. But last Saturday, Erzgebirge was hammered by Greuther Furth on the road. Hrgotha scored a double in the middle of the first half, and Green brought the goal difference to an indecent level after the break. However, the Violets already have 28 points, which allows them not to worry about relegation. And Erzgebirge does not aim for promotion.

Hamburger SV overstayed in the 2nd division. For a long time, the Red Shorts had a unique status of the team that did not leave the Bundesliga. And then they managed to lose their chances of returning to the elite division twice in a row. But it seems that Hamburg is at least trying not to fall into the same trap. This ambitious club is currently leading the standings and is gradually increasing its margin over the pursuers. It was not without a disastrous segment at the junction of autumn and winter. But now the team is on a 9-match streak without defeats. On January 26, the Red Shorts limited themselves to a goalless draw with Fortuna in Dusseldorf. But they gained an impressive 3-1 win over Paderborn last Saturday. Terodde didn’t score, limiting himself to an assist. But Sonny Kittel again drew attention to himself and arranged a double.
Hamburg looked mostly better than the rival, having won 2/3 of the last head-to-head matches (4 out of 6). But a year ago, just in Aue, Erzgebirge gained the only victory in a head-to-head confrontation. It seems that Aue will simply finish the season after a good first part. Therefore, Hamburg should beat such an opponent. We will bet on the visitors’ clear victory.
Prediction for the match: Hamburger SV to win
