HSV's next opponent is Eintracht Frankfurt. A starting line-up appearance by "Van the Man" is not unlikely, as he could replace Swedish international Marcus Berg. Surely this would cause tremendous excitement and atmosphere in the HSH Nordbank Arena on Saturday 15:30 CET.
The "Hanseaten" are currently ranking in 4th place, with a six point gap to 3rd. Frankfurt have recorded good results recently, having climbed up the standings into 7th place. But the task to prevail in Hamburg is not an easy one for Frankfurt, who have failed to secure a win in Hamburg for over 11 years now. This time around, with the Hamburg crowd having a new superstar to jeer on, the prospects of changing this statistic have become even less likely.
Probable line-ups:
HSV: Rost - Demel, Rozehnal, Mathijsen, Aogo - Zé Roberto, Rincon - Trochowski, Jansen - Petric, Berg (van Nistelrooy)
Frankfurt: Nikolov - Franz, Chris, Russ, Spycher - Schwegler - Ochs, Teber, Meier, Köhler - Halil Altintop
