The match between Greuther Furth and Hamburg is set for 18 May 2025 at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer in Fürth. Kick‐off is at 15:00 CEST (Italy, Germany, France, Spain) and 14:00 BST (UK).
This clash in the Germany Bundesliga II sees Greuther Furth aiming to solidify their mid‐table status, while Hamburg push for another crack at promotion. Expect an energetic atmosphere as home support looks to drive Furth to a crucial result.
How are both teams coming into this?
Greuther Furth have shown flashes of inspiration this season but lack the consistency needed to challenge for the top spots. Their recent results include a mix of tight wins and narrow defeats, leaving them comfortably above relegation danger but still seeking momentum.
Hamburg, meanwhile, remain one of the favourites for an automatic promotion spot. They boast a strong away record in the 2024/25 campaign, with quick transitions and efficient finishing. Confidence is high under their coach after a series of positive league performances.
Our forecast
We anticipate a closely fought encounter, with Hamburg likely to edge possession and create the clearer chances. Their superior form on the road suggests they’ll dictate the tempo, especially in the second half.
Defensively, Greuther Furth can frustrate opponents at home, so an under 2.5 goals market could appeal. However, our lean is towards a narrow away victory for Hamburg, possibly settled by a single goal.
