Daniel Fernandes - Makes five saves in loss Heuer Fernandes recorded five saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to SC Paderborn.

Impact Heuer Fernandes was the main reason why Hamburger SV didn't lose this game by a wider margin. The veteran goalkeeper responded time and time again to Paderborn's attacks, but he couldn't do much on the sequence that ended with Rayan Philippe's goal. Heuer Fernandes will look to bounce back in a tough matchup at Frankfurt on Sunday.

Yussuf Poulsen - Ruled out of both Frankfurt clashes Poulsen (hip) has been ruled out of Tuesday's DFB-Pokal clash and the upcoming Bundesliga encounter against Eintracht Frankfurt due to hip problems, according to coach Merlin Polzi...

Impact Poulsen was forced off at halftime of Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Paderborn after experiencing discomfort in his hip. Polzin confirmed that the forward will be unavailable for both upcoming matches against Frankfurt, ruling him out for the remainder of the week. The extent of the injury remains unclear, with no timeline established for his return to team training. His absence leaves Hamburg with fewer attacking options across the two fixtures, and his availability beyond the upcoming weekend will depend on his recovery progress.

Fabio Vieira - Ruled out for several weeks Vieira (thigh) is expected to miss several weeks after MRI scans confirmed a thigh muscle injury sustained during Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Paderborn, according to the club.

Impact Vieira was forced off in the 13th minute against Paderborn, with subsequent examinations confirming a muscular injury to his thigh. The Portuguese midfielder had already experienced minor hamstring discomfort earlier in the week but was cleared to start before suffering this latest setback. He is now expected to spend several weeks on the sidelines, ruling him out of Tuesday's DFB-Pokal clash against Eintracht Frankfurt and the upcoming Bundesliga fixtures. Vieira has made six appearances for Hamburg this season after joining permanently from Arsenal during the summer, and his absence could create additional attacking opportunities for Otto Stange.

Impact Nadir suffered a muscular injury to his right thigh during Saturday's defeat against Paderborn, forcing him off in the second half. Initially thought to be suffering from fatigue and cramping, the midfielder is now set to miss Tuesday's cup fixture, with an MRI scan scheduled to determine the severity of the injury.

His availability for Sunday's Bundesliga encounter against Eintracht Frankfurt on Nov. 1 remains uncertain.

Fabio Vieira - Forced off early against Paderborn Vieira (undisclosed) was forced off in the 13rd minute of Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Paderborn after suffering an injury, according to the club.

Impact Vieira suffered an unfortunate setback just minutes into Saturday's encounter against Paderborn, forcing him to leave the pitch in the 13rd minute. The Portuguese midfielder had been cleared to feature after experiencing minor hamstring discomfort earlier in the week, with coach Merlin Polzin previously confirming that he had recovered sufficiently to return to action. However, his early withdrawal raises concerns about a potential recurrence of his previous muscular issue, although the nature and severity of the latest injury have yet to be confirmed. Further medical examinations will likely be necessary to determine whether Vieira faces additional time on the sidelines. His potential absence could create more opportunities for Otto Stange in Hamburg's attacking rotation, particularly if the Portuguese midfielder is unable to recover in time for the club's upcoming fixtures.

Impact Capaldo is dealing with muscular discomfort that emerged during the week, leaving his availability for Saturday's encounter against Paderborn in serious doubt. The Argentine defender has reportedly made little progress in his recovery, making it increasingly unlikely that he will be fit enough to feature. His participation in Friday's final training session remains unknown, as the session was held behind closed doors. His potential absence would represent a significant blow to Hamburg's defensive setup, although a final decision on his availability has yet to be confirmed.

Impact Lokonga has recovered from the muscular problem that kept him out against Stuttgart and is now cleared for Saturday's encounter against Paderborn. The midfielder has resumed training after a brief absence, although his availability does not necessarily guarantee an immediate return to the starting lineup. Bilal Nadir, Miro Muheim and Martin Adeline have provided midfield alternatives during his absence, giving Hamburg the flexibility to ease Lokonga back into competitive action. His return nevertheless adds depth to the midfield ahead of the weekend fixture.

Impact Jatta has made encouraging progress in his recovery from a groin injury after gradually increasing his training workload throughout the week. The winger had already participated in most of Tuesday's session and has now been cleared for selection against Paderborn. His return strengthens Hamburg's options on the flanks, although his recent lack of competitive action could limit his involvement initially. Jatta will look to rebuild his match fitness after his spell on the sidelines.

The forward had previously been limited to individual rehabilitation but has now progressed back into team training and received clearance for Saturday's encounter against Paderborn. His return provides Hamburg with an additional attacking option, although Yussuf Poulsen remains a contender to lead the line. Daka's involvement could be managed as he works toward regaining full match fitness.

Impact Sambi Lokonga has recovered from the muscular issue that kept him out against VfB Stuttgart and has resumed full training, putting him on track to return to the squad against SC Paderborn 07 barring a setback. His availability does not guarantee an immediate starting role. The combination of Bilal Nadir, Miro Muheim and Martin Adeline performed well in the recent win, so coach Merlin Polzin could stick with the same lineup and ease Sambi Lokonga back into action from the bench.

Impact Jatta is working on rebuilding his fitness, but still has no precise timeline for his return. He worked through most of the training session on Tuesday, and still has plenty of time to recover. Jatta would be a nice depth option if deemed fit for Saturday's trip to Paderborn.

Impact Sambi Lokonga has served as a regular contributor of passing stats since joining Hamburger in 2025, though he has yet to score or assist this season and has missed a pair of games through injury. If he does return for upcoming action, he'll look to earn a starting spot at Bilal Nadir's expense and could continue to appear as a central midfielder while delivering a small share of corner kicks.

Impact Remberg has completed the first major step in his recovery after undergoing successful surgery on the serious knee injury he sustained against Hoffenheim. The Hamburg captain suffered a torn ACL in his right knee, bringing an abrupt end to what had been a regular starting role in the team's central midfield. Although the operation was successful, the midfielder now faces an extensive rehabilitation process, with an estimated recovery period of six to 12 months making him likely to miss most of the remainder of the 2026/27 campaign. His absence represents a significant blow to Hamburg's midfield stability and leadership, forcing the coaching staff to identify alternative options for an extended period. Remberg will now focus on his rehabilitation, with his progress over the coming months determining a more precise timeline for his return to competitive action.

Impact Nadir missed Hamburg's 3-2 victory over Hoffenheim due to adductor discomfort but has since recovered and is ready to return to competitive action. The 22-year-old was initially expected to resume individual work before progressing to full team training, and his latest fitness update confirms that the injury is no longer an obstacle to his availability. Nadir could claim a starting role against Stuttgart due to the ongoing injuries in the middle of the pitch, although coach Merlin Polzin will make the final decision regarding his involvement. His return provides Hamburg with another option as the team looks to build on its recent victory over Hoffenheim.
