Hoffenheim’s winless streak has been lasting for six matches. After defeating Leipzig, Groiter, Eintracht and Freiburg, the team drew with Bayer and Gladbach. As a result, Hoffe rose to fifth place, behind Bayer in the Champions League zone. The home statistics of the Blue and Whites are very decent - seventh in the division. It is also worth paying attention to that Hoffe has an incredible goal difference in home games. This suggests that if the team’s playing gets off a good start, it does not stop at minimal victories.
Augsburg
Despite the current 3-undefeated streak, Augsburg has a troubled tournament placing. The Bavarians have escaped from the danger zone, but they are only a point ahead of Stuttgart, found in the transition zone. The Fuggers have won only one away game this season, but they have four draws and the 10th away position in the division, which is not so bad. Obviously, they will try to bring at least a draw from Sinsheim.
