Hamburg are 4th in the Bundsliga , but level on points with the 2nd and 3rd placed sides(Wolfsburg/Bayern) ...... only Schalke , of all teams , have conceded less than Hamburgs nine goals at home ....... Hamburg have won 10 of their 12 home games , but have only won 4 of their 12 away games .
So it's pretty clear to me that this tie is gonna be a very tough one , and being at home in the 2nd leg could turn out to be all important .
