Hannover-Burgdorf in poor form: Steinhauser disappointed against Magdeburg!

Next Sunday, October 26, 2025, the handball elite will meet in the ZAG Arena for an exciting duel in the DAIKIN Handball Bundesliga. SC Magdeburg welcomes TSV Hannover-Burgdorf on the tenth matchday of the season. Kick-off takes place at 4.30 p.m. and the match will be broadcast live on Dyn. The anticipation for the match is great, even if the form of the guests from Hanover arouses mixed feelings.

Coach's team Christian Prokop has been struggling with difficulties in the last few weeks. A victory was followed by a defeat - a classic effect of ups and downs in sport. The current HBL top scorer scored in the last encounter against SC Magdeburg Marius Steinhauser Disappointing performances this season with only one goal from seven meters and not a single field goal. TSV's right side of the attack only achieved a measly effectiveness of 28.6 percent - there is a clear need for action here!

Review and challenges

The last duels between Magdeburg and Hanover speak for themselves. In the last three encounters, SC Magdeburg emerged victorious three times: 34:28, 28:27 and 28:27. This record puts Christian Prokop's team under pressure, after all they don't want to slip any further in the league, even if TSV remains in the top 6 of the league.

The coach was unhappy with his team's performance, especially in the first quarter of an hour, and noted that the atmosphere in the hall was affecting the players. On Sunday it is important to overcome the form crisis and get another win against 1. VfL Potsdam, who are almost definitely relegated. Potsdam still has a weak average throwing rate of just 57.1 percent.

Player squad under the microscope

There have been some changes in the TSV Hannover-Burgdorf squad. The new additions include Leif Tissier (HSV Hamburg), August Pedersen (SG Flensburg-Handewitt), Maxim Orlov (1. VfL Potsdam), Sindre Aho (Montpellier HB) and Luis Rodriguez from our own youth ranks. But important departures such as Martin Hanne and Vincent Büchner also have to be compensated for in order to remain competitive. The challenges are great, but ultimately there is hope for a turnaround.

So TSV faces an exciting task against a strong opponent who cannot be taken lightly. It remains to be seen whether Lower Saxony will be able to eliminate their weaknesses and find their way into the game. Fans of both teams can look forward to a thrilling handball game!
