Bayern Munich vs Hoffenheim Prediction & Betting tips
There was hope that this season in the Bundesliga will be more exciting in terms of title fight than many seasons in previous years. However, the competition does not manage to take advantage of Bayern’s weak phase in the long term. This year it looks like the Munich team will be presented with the bowl again at the end of the season.
In the Bundesliga table, FC Bayern are now seven points ahead of the competition. The cushion for the league leaders has never been bigger this season. Hansi Flick’s team has 42 points on the account. Whenever Bayern had such an interim record, or better, they always ended up being German champions.
Perhaps the formally strong Kraichgauer, who are in eleventh place in the classification, will succeed in making the title race a little more exciting on Saturday. After all, they have already beaten Bayern in the first leg, but the best bookmakers are in agreement before this second leg.
Bavaria :
On the one hand, Bayern are characterized by the fact that they have not played really well in the last few weeks, but are still expanding their lead at the top of the table. On the other hand, it is an indictment of the competition that Munich cannot put under long-term pressure this year either. Under these conditions, the Bavarians can already book the town hall balcony, so that appropriate celebrations in summer are possible.
Bayern have an incredible hunger for goals this season. With 53 goals after 18 match days they set a new high score. It is conceivable that Robert Lewandowski cracks Gerd Müller’s age-old record with 40 goals this season. The Pole currently has 23 goals. Actually, it is a bank to allude to a Lewandowski goal in the match between Bayern and Augsburg.
Bayern digested the cup failure in Kiel and then got three wins in a row in the Bundesliga. It wasn’t really difficult for them last when they played at Schalke. Before the break, Thomas Müller brought his colors into the lead. After the change, Robert Lewandowski, again Thomas Müller and David Alaba were successful in the 4-0 victory.
In terms of personnel, things are still looking very good at Bayern. Only Tanguay Nianzou is in advanced training. Otherwise, all Bayern players are fit, so that Hansi Flick could rotate. Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sane fight for a seat. Lucas Hernandez and Niklas Süle would be other options for the back four.
Hoffenheim :
In February TSG Hoffenheim will continue with the Europa League, although the Kraichgauer seem to have only just processed the double burden of the first half of the season with the Bundesliga and the European Cup. For a long time the league wasn’t going well at all. Only now could Sebastian Hoeneß’s team show again what it really is.
Hoffenheim have scored seven points in the last three games. Only Bayern were more successful during this period. While TSG never kept zero for a long time, there were three games without conceding a goal. The upswing is noticeable and that is why we do not think it is ruled out that the guests will score points in the Bayern game against Hoffenheim.
Last weekend, Sebastian Hoeneß’s team celebrated a convincing win at home against 1. FC Köln. Andrej Kramaric was once again the key player. The Croatian marked the first and third goal with a penalty in the 3-0 victory. This means that the attacker has already scored twelve goals despite the long quarantine. Christoph Baumgartner contributed the third goal in the Cologne game.
In terms of personnel, the TSG is slowly getting light again at the end of the tunnel. Kevin Vogt, Florian Grillitsch and Robert Skov could become options again on Saturday after recovering from injuries. This means that only Kevin Akpogouma, Dennis Geiger, Ryan Sessegnon and Konstantinos Stafylidis are on the Bundesliga injury list.
