It’s about Wolfsburg: this prediction has HSV worried! | OneFootball

At HSV, everything is currently revolving around one question: Despite their current slump in form, will a five-point cushion above 16th place be enough to stay up?

While many observers around the Volkspark are mainly hoping for slip-ups from the competition, TV pundit Dietmar Hamann is now warning of a scenario that many Rothosen fans may not like at all. The issue concerns VfL Wolfsburg.

Hamann believes the Lower Saxony side are still capable of a lot in the season run-in. “It wouldn’t surprise me if St. Pauli and Wolfsburg both win this weekend,” Bild quotes the former Germany international as saying. And more than that: “I don’t think it’s out of the question that Wolfsburg still pick up nine points.” Given that the Wolves face Bayern Munich on matchday 33, that prediction certainly seems bold. But with the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain having taken place just three days earlier, Bayern may be more vulnerable than usual.

If Wolfsburg really were to win all of their remaining matches, or at least collect seven points, HSV’s current six-point cushion would not be enough. Especially since HSV still have a difficult run-in ahead of them against Eintracht Frankfurt, Freiburg and Bayer Leverkusen. Wolfsburg, meanwhile, still have Freiburg as well as Bayern to face and meet St. Pauli on the final matchday in what could be a relegation showdown.

Hamann on HSV: “In the end, they’ll stay up”

Even so, Hamann still believes HSV will avoid relegation. “You can get something in Frankfurt — a point there would be worth gold,” said the Sky pundit. He also sees real opportunities against Freiburg: “By the time Freiburg come to Hamburg, they might be running out of steam.”

What matters most now, he said, is stability. “It’s about passion and concentration, you can’t afford to make mistakes. One or two moments decide games,” Hamann explained. Especially recently, HSV have too often found ways to still lose “average or evenly balanced matches.”

In addition, returning players like Luka Vuskovic or Sambi Lokonga could give the team extra quality in the final stretch of the season. “In the end, they’ll stay up,” is therefore Hamann’s conclusion.
