Overview

  • Kickoff is set for Friday at 20:30 at the Volksparkstadion, which is sold out at roughly 57,000 seats.
  • About 5,500 St. Pauli supporters are expected, with HSV fans marching from Platz der Republik at 15:00 and a St. Pauli bicycle and scooter convoy departing Millerntor at 16:15.
  • The match will not air on free TV and will be shown live on Sky Bundesliga HD 1 and Sky Sport Top Event, with streams on Sky Go and WOW for subscribers.
  • Officials have designated the derby a high‑risk event, and a separate Cro concert in the city the same day is expected to add to crowding and transit demand.
  • Head coaches Merlin Polzin (HSV) and Alexander Blessin (St. Pauli) lead their first top‑flight derby after opening draws for HSV at Mönchengladbach (0:0) and St. Pauli against Dortmund (3:3).
