Hoffenheim Preview – Can Hoffenheim revive campaign?
Mid-table Bundesliga outfit, Hoffenheim, currently occupy 9th place in the German top flight after seeing their previous hard work undone in recent times following a run of five league matches without a win, leaving Saturday’s hosts in 9th place.
3 defeats out of their last 5 matches overall with losses incurred against Freiburg, Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich – the latter being a 6-0 thrashing on home turf at their PreZero Arena, has seen Hoffenheim’s fortunes flag at a crucial period of the Bundesliga campaign.
Despite this recent run without a win though, Hoffenheim still trail 6th placed Schalke by just a 2-point margin but the hosts will need to drastically improve upon 5 defeats from their last 8 matches at home; however, goals look likely in this clash as 11 of Hoffenheim’s 13 matches at home have resulted in over 2.5 goals.
Hertha Berlin Preview – Can Hertha Berlin climb away from trouble?
The visitors lifted themselves up into 13th place on the Bundesliga ladder before the extended enforced break in the german top flight season thanks to picking up points in draws with Fortuna Dusseldorf 3-3 away and an entertaining 2-2 draw at home with Werder Bremen.
However, having managed to pick up just 1 win out of their last 6 matches overall, Hertha Berlin know they can’t afford to slip up too many times from here on in as third from bottom club, Fortuna Dusseldorf, are just 6 points adrift ahead of this weekend’s action.
Recent results away from home have been encouraging for Hertha Berlin though as the visitors are unbeaten in their last 5 matches on their travels, but this clash is effectively a re-start of a season so perhaps goals is the better option, especially as 9 of Hertha Berlin’s last 12 away matches have also produced 3 goals or more.
