Stuttgart recovered from their opening defeat to Freiburg to take eight points after four matches. They drew 3-3 with Mainz in their opening home game and lost consecutive games to Borussia Monchengladbach and Borussia Dortmund.
Despite another defeat last weekend, they bounced back twice and showed great strength to win against Wolfsburg. When his former club Hoffenheim travel to Stuttgart on Sunday, head coach Sebastian Hoeness will be hoping for back-to-back victories. Their most recent matchup was an away 3-0 win over Dia Schwaben. But they have only scored in their last two home matches against Hoffenheim.
TSG 1899 Hoffenheim
Hoffenheim won just one of their first five league games, which put them in the relegation playoff spot. They meet this opponent on Sunday. On the first day of the tournament, Hoffenheim won their only match against Holstein Kiel 3-2. Since then, Pellegrino Matarazzo's side have lost to Eintracht Frankfurt, Bayer Leverkusen, Union Berlin and Werder Bremen, and they can't build on that success
It would have been particularly disappointing had they come into last Saturday’s home game against Bremen empty-handed.
In Thursday's Europa League home game against Dynamo Kiev, Matarazzo will be happy to keep his side in check after allowing 15 goals in five league games. They will be aiming for more of the same in Saturday's match against Matarazzo's former club. The fact that they have lost six of their last seven league games will dash their hopes of all three points.
Expert Betting Tips
Hoffenheim is in great form and has just lost one of their previous five Bundesliga games, but they will be up against a strong Stuttgart team. As they are now winning a lot of games, we anticipate that the visitors will routinely score two or more goals after the 90 minutes. The form of Hoffenheim implies they can score at least one goal.
A scoreline of 2-1 or 3-1 is anticipated as we believe Stuttgart will win and anticipate BTTS.
