Schalke v Hamburg Tipp & Quoten, 23.07.2021 – 20:30 o’clock
For the fans, the duel will perhaps feel like a retrospective into the past, because if FC Schalke and Hamburg SV meet, then in the past either in the DFB Cup or in the 1st Bundesliga. The duel in the 2nd Bundesliga is now a debut and also the start of the new season 2021/22. On Friday evening it will be against each other and for both sides the pressure is quite high to start the season with a good result here. Schalke has a very clear goal: direct recovery should be achieved in the first attempt. Hamburg would have liked to have succeeded in this, but failed three times in a row. The scalpers will be favourites in their own stadium, but it is also difficult to assess the performances at the beginning of a season. Much seems possible. Game starts at 20:30 (CET) in the Veltins Arena.
(Stand der Quoten: 21.07.2021, 18:24 Uhr)
Of course, not much can be said about the current form of the scalpers. First of all, the team was relegated last season and that was also more than clear. For a long time, they were in 18th place and had to enter the 2nd Bundesliga at the end of the season. Schalke last played in the 2nd Bundesliga in 1991. But even before the relegation season, the performances were mixed. If we even won the runner-up championship in 2018, in the two years that followed, we ended up only in 14th and 12th place. So for Schalke, the recovery project begins.
Recently Schalke also had a few test matches, which were more or less satisfactory. Against Donetsk and Zenit St. Petersburg there were scoreless draws. Hamborn 07 was beaten 14-0, which was also in June. In this respect, these games also do not have too much significance. However, Schalke will also go to the Saion in a highly favoured position, which is certainly also related to the team’s market value. At around 83 million euros, only Bremen can currently compete in this regard.
Ralf Fährmann, Omar Mascarell and Rabbi Matondo will probably miss the start of the season on the Schalker side.

The goal of the Hamburg SV is the same as that of Schalke: to go up. However, the HSV has been playing in the 2nd Bundesliga for three years now. After the relegation in 2018, they had actually wished for a faster promotion and certainly imagined it. But four times in a row Hamburg now landed only in 4th place.Often the HSV had a good chance, but then often collapsed or had to surrender to the better competition. With Werder Bremen and Schalke 04 as competitors this season, things will not be any easier. In this respect, of course, an away victory to kick off on Schalke would be enormously important.
At the end of the first leg last season, Hamburg even came in first place. But then they played a very lean back round. If it had only gone after the second half of the season, Hamburg would not have had anything to do with the ascent. In this respect, it must be shown whether the team can get off to a good start under coach Tim Walter. Walter has been on the Hamburg coach’s bench since the beginning of July. The HSV also recently had a few test games, in which you could deliver more or less well. They won 1-0 against FC Basel.
For the HSV it will go directly into the new season with a few cancellations. These include Tom Mickel, Anssi Suhonen, David Bates, Josha Vagnoman, Jeremy Dudziak, Sonny Kittel and Stephan Ambrosius.
