Hoffenheim (Ger) vs Liverpool (Eng) Prediction & Betting tips
In the UEFA Champions League play-offs, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim hopes to reach the group stage of the royal class for the first time. Their hurdle is however extremely high, because their opponent is Liverpool from England. The Reds want to enter the Champions League with all their might and are also favorites in this first leg. But are they really? Our bets tend to move in a different direction.
Hoffenheim (Ger) :
On the weekend, the Kraichgauer played their first mandatory game and booked a 1: 0 victory over Rot-Weiss Erfurt in the first round of the DFB Cup. “We had incredibly little room, but we also played sloppy. After half-time, we did things better, “added Nagelsmann, adding,” There are changes to Liverpool. Unfortunately, one or the other has failed. It’s going to be tight for Tuesday. “They were a 3-1-4-2 formation against third-league players, although they will be a bit more defensive against the English.
There will probably be no changes in the defense, but the midfielder is likely to face a change of face. Both Serge Gnabry and Mark Uth are candidates for the start-up. Oliver Baumann is on target. All in all there are certainly construction sites at the Kraichgauer, but with Lukas Rupp, Florian Grillitsch and Pavel Kaderábek, Julian Nagelsmann still has other players who could do the team well. Their preparations have been very successful, as they have also won points against Bologna (3-0), Derby County (2-1) and Standard Liege (4-2).
Liverpool (Eng) :
Opponent Liverpool caused a victory in the preparations for Hertha BSC (3-0) and Bayern Munich (3-0). Even against Atletico Madrid they made a 1: 1 and against Bilbao there was a 3: 1. Their dress rehearsal however failed, because on the first day of the Premier League there was only a 3: 3 draw at FC Watford. Bitter: The equalizer for the hosts fell only in stoppage time. In all, the defense of Liverpool made a somewhat uncertain impression. Watford always came to dangerous scenes, so it is mainly in the rear area to catch as quickly as possible. With Mohamed Salah on the weekend only a new entry in the starting line – overall, Jürgen Klopp’s team also remained calm on the transfer market and reported with Dominic Solanke and Andrew Robertson only two other commitments. Nathaniel Clyne, Philippe Coutinho, Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren, Mamadou Sakho, Adam Bogdan, Daniel Sturridge and Danny Ings will be missing.
