Borussia Dortmund hosts Hamburger SV on August 29, 2026, at 6:30 PM at the Signal Iduna Park. The Bundesliga season opens with the clash between the reigning vice-champion and the promotion-secured HSV. Coach Niko Kovac relies on new signings like Konstaninos Karetsas, Giannis Konstantelias, and Joey Veerman, while veterans Julian Brandt and Niklas Süle are absent. HSV has to do without Luka Vuskovic, who was loaned out. In the previous season, the Hanseaten won two games against Dortmund, including a 1:1 home draw and a 2:3 away defeat. The match will not be broadcast on free-to-air TV but exclusively on Sky. A live ticker is available at ran.joyn.de.
