Things will get serious for Hamburger SV on Sunday, July 6, 2025, as the team will face VfB Oldenburg in the Marschwegstadion. Kick-off is at 1:30 p.m. A highlight for fans who don't want to miss out on the broadcast options: the game can be followed live on skysport.de, the HSV-TV and on the official HSV YouTube channel. However, fans should know that there will be no TV broadcast by Sky Betting base reported.
HSV has been preparing for the season since June 2nd and will intensify its form in the friendly. Coach Merlin Polzin gathered his players on the pitch on July 2nd after they had previously taken part in performance tests on June 30th and July 1st. On the same day, HSV played its first test match against TSV Elstorf, which ended 3-0 in Hamburg's favor.
Looking forward to the duel against Björn Oldenburg
VfB Oldenburg, on the other hand, has been preparing in training since mid-June and last played against TuS Bersenbrück, where the result was 3-3. It will be exciting to see whether the team can implement the experience gained in preparation against the clearly favored HSV. The betting odds, which were determined on July 5th at 9 a.m., indicate that a victory for HSV is very popular, although exact odds for a win, a draw and a defeat for Oldenburg are not currently available.
Looking back, HSV can look back on a positive record against Oldenburg: the last meeting in the DFB Cup in 2012 ended with a 2-1 win for Hamburg. However, Oldenburg's only victory over HSV dates back to the 1950s, where they triumphed 1-0.
More test matches and season highlights
The test match against VfB Oldenburg is just one of several matches in the upcoming pre-season preparations. Another highlight is coming up on July 12th when HSV will play against FC Copenhagen. Here too, fan interest is enormous and the 7,500 available tickets are already sold out. Capacity will be exhausted just as quickly for further test matches, such as the one against Sturm Graz on July 19th and against RCD Mallorca on August 9th.
An exciting start to the season is also imminent: The first round of the DFB Cup will be played between August 15th and 18th, 2025, where HSV will face FK Pirmasens. The start of the Bundesliga season will be a game from August 22nd to 24th, 2025, the exact date has not yet been set.
So it never gets boring for the fans! If you want to be there yourself, you should hurry up because the tickets for the first test matches are already gone. And perhaps Hamburg can also secure their first win of the new season in a duel with Oldenburg.
