Hickengruendler:
I don't doubt this. But I am pretty sure it will happen in book 7. 
The finale showdown, and this way many characters will be involved. 
My guess is, that Trelawney will make a third prediction, predicting 
the attack or something this way, so that the good ones can be 
prepared. This could be Dumbledore's reward for his faith in 
Trelawney. I am also sure that the DA is a big hint to the Hogwarts 
attack. I mean, that's the most logical place for them to fight.

Hickengruendler:
Book 7. My prediction is, that Voldemort will win an important battle 
at the end of book 6, maybe taking over the ministry or something 
like this. He has to become greater and more terrible than ever 
before, and he has less time than during the first war. ;-) And then 
in book 7 he will attack Hogwarts, the only safe place during the 
first war.

Hickengruendler:
Yes, this should be fun. Not that I care about any of the creatures 
who live in the Forbidden Forest, but I wouldn't mind see them again 
if they are in action.

Yes, but they are in Azkaban. Even if they break out, I can't see 
them being invinted to Hogwarts.
