Stadium: PreZero Arena (Sinsheim)
21.12.2024 17:30
On Saturday afternoon, they travel to Sinsheim to compete against Hoffenheim, who are currently struggling to find their footing in the league. Hoffenheim surprised Borussia Dortmund by holding them to a 1-1 draw away at Signal-Iduna-Park against them. In the final minute of stoppage time, Jacob Bruun Larsen scored the late equalizer, which silenced the crowd at one of the most difficult strongholds in the country to take over.
Through the first half of the season, Hoffenheim has, on the whole, enjoyed a campaign that has been less than satisfactory. The first 14 games of the season resulted in only three victories for them. Hoffenheim's primary issue has been that they have not been as careful in their defensive play. So far in the season, the squad has conceded a total of 26 goals.
During the 4-1 thrashing that Monchengladbach delivered to Holstein Kiel at Stadion im BORUSSIA-PARK on the previous Saturday, both teams were on target. The current position of Monchengladbach in the league rankings is eleventh. Monchengladbach has only suffered a single defeat in their last six league matches. In the simple victory that they achieved at home against Holstein Kiel during the past weekend, they displayed an outstanding attacking performance.

After securing a well-deserved point against Dortmund, Hoffenheim manager Christian Ilzer will be happy with his team's resiliency. Despite the heroics that have been displayed late in the game, Hoffenheim continues to struggle with scoring goals, as they have failed to find the back of the net in five of their previous eight encounters.
The team has had a difficult time maintaining consistency, as they have drawn their last three matches after suffering three consecutive defeats. On the other hand, they have demonstrated signs of improvement, as they have only suffered a single defeat in their most recent five Bundesliga matches, and they have accumulated six points over that span.
The remarkable home form that Hoffenheim has displayed at the PreZero Arena, where they have won four of their previous eight matches, drawn three of them, and lost only one of them, is one of the good things that have happened.
Borussia Monchengladbach
Monchengladbach performed a powerful performance against Holstein Kiel, registering 14 shots inside the penalty area, generating approximately 2.5 xG, and building four clear-cut chances while entirely shutting down their opponents' ability to create any big opportunities by totally shutting down their opponents' ability to create any opportunities at all. In the aftermath of the victory, head coach Gerardo Seoane praised the mental toughness and discipline displayed by his players.
In the Bundesliga, Monchengladbach has had a difficult time achieving a string of victories in a row. Their most recent streak of consecutive victories occurred in May 2022, spanning 81 matches. On the other hand, it is important to point out that in their most recent eight league matches, Monchengladbach have only received one loss, while they have won four of those matches.
Monchengladbach has the joint-eighth-best attack in the league and the joint-fourth-best defence in the league, with 23 goals scored and 19 goals conceded. Despite this, the team's away performance continues to be cause for concern, as they have only won two of their previous twenty Bundesliga matches away from home, while they have also lost 11 of those matches and drawn seven of them.

Expert Betting Tips
From the beginning of the season till now, Hoffenheim has only been able to secure three victories. Over the course of the last six matches across all competitions, they have not won a single one of them, and they have only scored twice.
Monchengladbach has won four of their past five head-to-head matches against Hoffenheim, which is not the least of their accomplishments. Monchengladbach is my pick considering their consistency. However, BTTS is too enticing to ifnore.
