LiontipsEintracht vs Hoffenheim. Prediction and bets on the Bundesliga match
Command Analysis
Current form
In the opening round, Eintracht played away against Borussia Dortmund. It is worth noting that the Eagles played the first half on equal terms, but in the second 45 minutes they clearly "sagged", which the opponent took advantage of. There is a problem with physical preparation. Thus, taking into account last season, Eintracht's streak without a win in the Bundesliga has reached five matches. The good news is that in the second round, Dino Toppmöller's charges will play on their home field, and here they have very impressive statistics - in 27 previous matches in the championship they have lost only twice (13 wins and 12 draws).
Disqualifications and injuries
Wenig and Laun are injured and will not be able to help their team today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Five of Eintracht's previous six league matches have seen goals exchanged
- At least four goals have been scored in five of Eintracht's previous seven home Bundesliga matches
Estimated line-up : Trapp - Christensen, Tuta, Koch, Theate - Shkiri, Larsson - Gotze, Marmus, Shaibi - Ekitike.
Current form
As in most of the previous season's matches, Hoffenheim showed their usual style in the first round - they boldly went forward, constantly threatened the opponent's goal, but also allowed a lot in their penalty area. This football, in the end, brought a home victory in the confrontation with Holstein (3:2). It should be noted that the game was held without a full house, as the fans staged a protest in connection with the dismissal of sports director Alexander Rosen and because of dissatisfaction with the large expenses on new players. A more serious test lies ahead, and on the road at that: Hoffenheim lost four of their last five away matches in the Bundesliga.

In the match against Borussia Dortmund, it was noticeable that Eintracht looked strong in the first half, but at the same time the team is not strong enough for the full 90 minutes. We believe that on their home field, the Eagles will try to immediately establish an advantage and they will succeed.
