SC Freiburg – Hamburger SV

SC Freiburg enter the clash as clear table‑toppers, sitting on nine points after three straight victories and a staggering 10‑1 goal tally. Their hosts will be looking to extend that flawless run against a Hamburger SV side that has yet to register a point, having lost all three opening games and been hit for twelve goals without replying. The disparity in form is evident, with Freiburg boasting a perfect record while the Hamburg outfit languishes at the bottom of the league. A win for Freiburg would cement their dominance at the summit, whereas any resistance from Hamburg could at least offer a morale boost in a season that has so far been unforgiving.
