HSV fans still on fire: top of the table and a new club record! | OneFootball

HSV can rely on its fans this Bundesliga season. Week after week, the supporters of the Red Shorts are setting new milestones.

Especially home game tickets have long become scarce. The upcoming match against Union Berlin (Saturday, 3:30 PM) is completely sold out, and even for the duel against RB Leipzig (March 1st), only a few tickets are available for general sale.

The duel against the Saxons also promises a very special milestone. For the 60th consecutive time, at least 50,000 spectators will be present at the Volksparkstadion – a club record! The last match with fewer than 50,000 visitors was almost three and a half years ago. This season, the stadium is almost always fully occupied, with an average of 56,910 spectators out of a capacity of 57,000.

HSV fans dominate the away travel table

Curiously, the lowest attendance of this record series was recorded during the heated North Derby against Werder Bremen (3:2). However, the reason was not a lack of interest, but additional security measures with buffer zones between the two fan groups.

But HSV is not only a force at home; the Hamburg fans are unstoppable away as well. With an average of 6,665 traveling supporters per game, HSV ranks 1st in the Bundesliga's away travel table according to the fan portal diefalsche9. The guest sections are consistently sold out, and tickets in the member pre-sale are snapped up within minutes.

The next example will follow in early March in Wolfsburg. Around 12,000 HSV fans are expected at the VW Arena, turning the encounter with the relegation rival into a home game. According to Bild, some Hanseatic fans even resorted to combo tickets, which are also valid for the Wolfsburg match against FC Augsburg, just to see their HSV live.
