What Hamburger SV’s first halves look like

A goal arrives before halftime in 83.8% of Hamburger SV’s 2. Bundesliga matches. The 2.

Every figure on this page rests on 136 completed Hamburger SV matches over 4 seasons (2021 to 2025). That is enough to separate a clear tendency from noise, and not enough to split it much further by venue or opponent.

How to read these numbers
- These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
- The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
For the model’s estimate of an actual upcoming fixture rather than this club’s history, see first half goals predictions and how the model works.
