Borussia Dortmund vs Hamburger SV Prediction

Match Preview

Borussia Dortmund welcome Hamburger SV to Signal Iduna Park on March 21, 2026, in a Bundesliga clash that pits a top-flight contender against a side eager to prove their mettle. Dortmund are missing key defensive figures Ramy Bensebaini (suspension) and Emre Can (season-ending injury), while Filippo Mane remains sidelined until late March. Hamburger SV, meanwhile, are expected to field Ransford Königsdörffer and Miro Muheim, both likely to start as they seek to upset Dortmund on their home turf.

With Dortmund aiming to consolidate their position in the league and Hamburger SV pushing for valuable points, this encounter promises tactical intensity and keen competition. The hosts will rely on their solid defensive unit led by Süle and Schlotterbeck, while HSV’s forwards look to exploit any gaps left by Dortmund’s injury-induced absences.

Team Form

Dortmund have shown more consistent form recently, picking up three wins and a draw in their last five matches, while scoring a healthy 12 goals. Hamburger SV's form has been more erratic, with only one win in five and a tendency to concede more than they score. This contrast highlights Dortmund’s stronger attacking edge and defensive resilience, even with some absences.
