Tip and bets
Teams are currently on two opposing ends of the table, but both sides surely need points. Visitors are in a great physical and emotinal shape, but we can't say the same about the Villagers, who are on a four-game losing streak.
We think that Arminia will take the possession of the ball today, but Hoffenheim will be motivationed to secure a positive result at home. Anyway, we are not expecting a blowout from The Blues.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (+1) for Arminia
Any mistake in this match can be very costly, so teams will surely try to perform cautiously on defense. Moreover, in three most recent head-to-head matches only two goals were scored, so we are expecting a quiet game.
Our second bet is on total under 3 goals
