Hamburger SV welcome Paderborn at Volksparkstadion, Hamburg on Tuesday, Mar 2 at 8:30 PM in a Bundesliga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Hamburger SV come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 4). Paderborn, meanwhile, arrive out of form (1W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Hamburger SV and Paderborn have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (4W–2D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Hamburger SV won 0–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Hamburger SV win or a draw looks most likely.
