Hamburg’s hope of finding their first goals and points of the Bundesliga campaign takes them to an erratic Leipzig on matchday three. This match on Sunday at the Red Bull Arena between the 8th-placed ‘Red Bulls’ and the 18th-placed ‘Red Shorts’ could throw a surprise in terms of goals with BTTS in our match prediction.
With three points (W1, L1), Leipzig are three points behind the leaders, while Hamburg are yet to win a point (L2). They haven’t even scored a goal and are bottom of the standings.
A chastening 4-1 away defeat at Como in the first match of the league phase of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) on Thursday. The nature of that defeat is a concern, as is the result, making it back-to-back defeats for the ‘Red Bulls'.
That included a 3-1 away defeat at Werder Bremen last weekend, which erased the positives of starting the season with a 3-0 home win over Monchengladbach.
Hamburg were thrashed 5-0 at home last weekend on matchday two, which was preceded by a 2-0 loss at Dortmund on matchday one. That leaves their win in the DFB-Pokal as the only competitive victory of this season.
Their record on the road is of a similar concern, as the ‘Red Shorts’ have lost four of their last six away league matches (W1, D1).

Our Leipzig vs Hamburg Prediction
Leipzig and Hamburg are coming off consecutive defeats; in the case of Leipzig, one of those came in the UCL. Hamburg have a bigger need to halt their losing streak, as they start this round as one of the three teams yet to win a point. Worse still, they are yet to score! However, Leipzig’s recent defensive struggles plus history in this fixture could work to their advantage.
Four of the last five head-to-head matches, including both seasonal games last season, have seen action from both teams. So, our Leipzig vs Hamburg prediction is BTTS.
