Dusseldorf vs Hoffenheim Prediction & Betting tips
All of Düsseldorf looked with relief during the week at the catch-up game between Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt. Had the home side won the match, Uwe Rösler’s team would now be the penultimate in the 30th matchday. Instead, the Flinger residents occupy the relegation site, but need points in order to intercept Mainz on the one hand and to keep the Bremen at a distance on the other.
It is now that the TSG Hoffenheim is making a guest appearance at the Merkur Spiel-Arena, which recently won the maximum six points in the English week and was able to report back in the fight for Europe. Which bookmaker near Dusseldorf against Hoffenheim offers the best odds can be found in the betting comparison.
Although the Flingerers have not lost any of the last three encounters with the kickers from Kraichgau, the Sinsheimers are considered to be favorites in this encounter.
However, this is not really surprising. After all, Dusseldorf against Hoffenheim must factor in the defenselessness of Fortuna at the weekend against Bayern Munich. However, the clear 0: 5 was the first defeat after six league games in a row without defeat (two wins, four draws).
The home team’s point win against a strong Sinsheim team should not be ruled out categorically. We therefore choose to play the double chance X2 at Düsseldorf against Hoffenheim and combine it with the likely market “Both teams meet: Yes” for reasons of odds.
In the following analysis we take a closer look at the form of the two teams and give reasons for this betting recommendation. Further assessments of the 30th matchday of the top floor of German football are available in the Bundesliga Betting Tips category.
Dusseldorf:
At Fortuna Düsseldorf, the inglorious decision was made in January 2020 to part with the successful coach Friedhelm Funkel, who finished tenth last season despite a mini budget. Accordingly, his successor Uwe Rösler, who most recently worked for stations such as Malmö FF and Fleetwood Town, did not have it easy.
So its yield is not overly scary. The Flinger native scored twelve points in the ten league games led by the 51-year-old. However, most of the counters in the last few games. After all, before the crashing 0: 5 loss to Bayern, ten points from six games were on record. At least for a short time, it looked as if the Fortunes could pull their heads out of the loop again.
After the defeat against the German record champions, the amount of which was extremely unfavorable for the possibly important goal difference in the end, it is now all the more important that the team shakes this bankruptcy and continues to fully accept the relegation battle.
Points have to be earned against TSG Hoffenheim, because after this home game, the Flingerers’ schedule will be really tough. On matchday 31, Borussia Dortmund is a guest in the Merkur Spiel-Arena. Only five days later, the Rösler team must start at RB Leipzig. Two games in which you shouldn’t necessarily calculate something countable.
However, this should also make it clear that there can be no protection against the guests from Baden-Württemberg. With the exception of Marcel Sobottka and Zack Steffen, who are both still injured, the best Flinger team should be on the pitch.
It is all the more surprising that the odds of bookmakers speak against Fortuna overall at Düsseldorf against Hoffenheim. After all, the red and whites fought a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Sinsheim and have been unbeaten in the last three encounters with the kickers from Kraichgau.
In addition, there is a reasonably solid home value. Although the Düsseldorfers only scored 16 out of 42 possible points in the home Merkur game arena, this is more due to the many home draws. There were only six defeats in their own stadium. For comparison: the guests from Baden-Württemberg have already lost eight times at home …
Hoffenheim:
After the disappointing ninth place in the table, which came at the end of the 2018/19 season, TSG Hoffenheim actually wants to be back in the international competition. For a long time, however, it didn’t look like it could work. At the end of the first half of the season, however, there was only one point missing in sixth place.
Then the men from Kraichgau broke down completely in the second half of the season. Most recently, there were only nine points from ten games before a perfect English week revived the already shattered hope of returning to Europe.
After the two wins over 1. FC Köln (3: 1) and FSV Mainz 05 (1: 0), another six points finally went to Alfred Schreuder’s team’s points account. There are a total of 42 points – just as many as VfL Wolfsburg have with which the Hoffenheim team are currently fighting for sixth place in the table.
Because this duel is difficult to decide on the goal difference for the Sinsheimer, who are clearly the losers here with a whopping 48 goals from 29 games, consequently more points have to be obtained. Just like the wolves, who will face Werder Bremen on Sunday, the TSG will also play against an opponent threatened with relegation. It is clear that three points with regard to a qualification for the Europa League are mandatory here.
The strong away record of the footballers from Kraichgau is encouraging, who have already suffered eight defeats at home, but have only lost three of their 14 games away. A remarkable value that only Bayern and Leipzig can top in a league-wide comparison.
In addition, the TSG conceded very few goals, especially away. Just four balls landed in the last seven away games in the network of regular goalkeeper Oliver Baumann. Only the current league leaders from Munich can outdo this value.
Because the losing streak of seven games in a row without a win ended with the two games won in the English Week with a bang, in our eyes there is a lot to be said for playing against Soffenheim against Dusseldorf against Hoffenheim.
After all, rotation is not something that harms the TSG. Ten league goals have already been recorded in the current season, which were achieved by substitute players. And that’s last, but not least, a top-notch Bundesliga result that not even Bayern beats.
