Huge win for HSV!
They've done it! What a superb game that was. HSV take the Hamburg city bragging rights against the rivals, but more importantly they take all three points against a direct promotion rival to keep their top-flight push on course!

Goal record
The last time there were seven goals in a Hamburg city derby was back in 2001. The most recent occasion when there were eight goals in this fixture was back in 1958, when Bundesliga legend Uwe Seeler hit a hat-trick in an 8-0 victory for HSV.

xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).

What is going on?!?
Just when it looked like Pauli were out of it, they're right back in the mix! A corner from the right is met by Irvine on the edge of the six-yard box and he guides a brilliant header into the corner!
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.

Surely that settles it?!?!
Unfortunate for the Pauli defender as he slides in to try and clear a low cross from the right, with Königsdörffer lurking right behind him, but he prods the ball into his own net!

So close from Smith!
The defender has plenty of time to set himself as he shoots but his volley flies wide of the target!

Game on!
Well, well, well! Pauli score with their seventh shot of this half (HSV haven't had any!) Saad scampers clear down the left - beating the offside trap - and coolly slots the ball in at the near post!

Needing two goals and some fresh impetus to change the mood, Pauli bring on Metcalfe and Saad, with Afolayan and Aremu making way.

Decisive goals
As a promotion six-pointer, this spell from Hamburg could be crucial. Pauli could have (and still could) move to withing three points of HSV with a win, but as things stand the hosts are on 56 points, with Pauli down on 47 - seven points behind Heidenheim in the promotion play-off spot.
53'
What a comeback!
Having been 1-0 down with just a minute to go before half-time, HSV are now 3-1 up! Glatzel's header is well saved by Vasilj but Heyer is first to the rebound, prodding in from about eight yards out.

It's the perfect start for HSV! A diagonal cross into the box from the left is left by three Pauli defenders, giving Jatta room to pounce from close range at the back post!

Proper derby
It’s been a blink-and-you-miss-it game so far, with both teams flooding forward at every opportunity. Pauli took the lead through Saliakis’ well-taken opener, but will David’s thunderbolt of an equaliser swing momentum HSV’s way?
45'
What a goal!
There appeared to be little danger as HSV probed around the edge of a packed Pauli penalty area. The ball is played to Jonas David about 10 yards outside the box, right of centre. He takes a touch and then smashes an unstoppable drive into the top corner. Sensational stuff!

Hamburg are behind in a home game for the first time in over five months. The last time that happened was in November 2022 against Regensburg - but HSV went on to win that one 3-1.

Nice from Jatta
The winger shows his strength to hold off a challenge and cross into the box, aiming for Glatzel, but it's too close to the goalkeeper.

Pauli must lead!
An unbelievable cross from Paqarada on the left, right in the space between the defence and the goalkeeper. It comes to the unmarked Daschner on the edge of the six-yard box, but somehow he gets his feet in a muddle and can't connect properly! That should have been the opening goal!

Kittel again!
Kittel charges into the Pauli box on the right and drills a low shot towards the far post. For a moment it looks like it's going in but it fizzes just wide!

Kittel causing havoc
The HSV winger makes mischief down the right and crosses into the middle, looking for Kittel. Goalkeeper Vasilj and a defender get in each other's way but the visitors manage to scramble clear!

So close from Afolayan!
The Pauli attacker skips into the right-hand side of the HSV box, cuts inside Muheim and gets a shot away. It deflects of Schonlau and narrowly whizzes the wrong side of the post, nestling into the side netting. The clearest chance of the game so far!

100 up for Glatzel
The HSV forward's shot just now was his 100th attempt at goal this season - more than anyone else. He's scored 17 of those. Bundesliga 2's 21-goal top scorer Tim Kleindienst is next in the shot charts with 86.

Pauli's first attempt
The away side get forward with purpose for the first time. Paqarada finds space on the left and spies Hartel inside the box. The attacker turns and gets a shot away but lacks the necessary accuracy to go in at the near post.

Glatzel has a go
HSV's pressing forces Pauli to lose possession just outside their own penalty area. The ball comes to Glatzel on his left foot but his powerfully struck shot is straight at Vasilj in the visiting goal.

Bright start
It's the hosts on the front foot early on. Dompe delivers an inviting low ball into the box from the left but the onrushing Kittel can't quite control it and the chance goes begging.

Attack-minded Hamburg
Tim Walter has made three changes to his team for this one. Moritz Heyer and Jonas Meffert both return after missing out last week, with Noah Katterbach and Laszlo Benes on the bench, while Jean-Luc Dompe starts in attack for midfielder Anssi Suhonen.
More on those teams
Fabian Hürzeler has made a couple of changes to his line-up for this potentially season-defining game. Fit-again Eric Smith returns to the side, with Adam Dzwigala dropping to the bench as a result, while Afeez Aremu comes in for Connor Metcalfe, who is among the substitutes for the first time under Hürzeler.
