It’s not about the attack! HSV have a major weakness | OneFootball

The 0:1 loss at FC Augsburg revealed several familiar problems for HSV. And it's not solely the weakening attack that is holding back the Hanseatic team.

Even more so, it's the catastrophic away record that is putting the newly promoted team in a difficult position in this now not-so-young season. Four defeats from six away games, with two draws in Mönchengladbach and Berlin, speak volumes. A few weeks before the winter break, it's completely clear: HSV is simply achieving too little on foreign grounds!

Nicolai Remberg tried to see the situation positively after the defeat in Augsburg. "When you hear it, it's briefly in your mind, but I believe it doesn't affect us now," said the midfield engine regarding the chronic away weakness of the Rothosen.

In fact, the record at Volkspark is significantly better: From five matches in front of their own fans, HSV collected seven points. They scored seven goals in the process. In the home table, this currently ranks them in a solid tenth place. "We now have three home games. It's nice for us to play in our stadium. We have great force and power there, and that's why we have to try to score points," said Remberg about the upcoming matches against Stuttgart, Holstein Kiel, and Werder Bremen.

HSV looks forward to a "loud and energetic Volksparkstadion"

Coach Merlin Polzin shares his protégé's assessment: "We look forward to a loud and energetic Volksparkstadion." At the same time, he warns that preparation for each opponent will be crucial.

However, a sober look at the facts shows: The previous home victories were achieved "only" against Heidenheim and Mainz, the two weakest teams in the league. Whether such successes are also possible against Stuttgart or Bremen remains to be seen.
