Union Berlin vs Hoffenheim Prediction & Betting tips
TSG Hoffenheim was surprisingly eliminated in the Europa League on Thursday. On Sunday, the team from Sinsheim will play an away game at FC Union Berlin. We take a closer look at the teams.
Union Berlin:
FC Union Berlin ended a successful series last week. The second club from the German capital had, after a great first part of the season, ended up in a bit of a hole, with a run of five matches without a win. Last week, in Freiburg, a line was put under that series. Union had won 0-1 in the Schwarzwald Stadium, in a match to forget quickly. Grischa Prömel took care of the three points with a striking header.
In the rankings, the starting position is still phenomenal, when you consider that the Berliners were placed in the group of relegation candidates at the start of the season. Union is currently number seven in the ranking, with 33 points from 22 matches. First goalkeeper Andreas Luthe is back in the game, which means that Loris Karius will probably have to take a seat on the reserve bench again.
Hoffenheim:
TSG Hofffenheim was surprisingly banned from the Europa League tournament on Thursday. Nevertheless, the club from Baden-Württemberg had a good starting position for a place in the last sixteen – the first leg of the diptych against the Norwegian Molde FK ended in a 3-3 draw. But on Thursday in Sinsheim, little worked for Hoffe. Although they had a lot of the ball, Sebastian Hoenes’ team did far too little with it. The Norwegians, on the other hand, struck twice clinically, resulting in a 0-2 final score.
On a positive note, the focus can now be fully focused on the Bundesliga, as Hoffenheim has already been eliminated in the DFB Pokal. The question is what is still possible in the league. Hoffenheim is the ultimate middle driver; the distance to the degradation zone as the European places is more or less the same. Who knows, however, what is still in the barrel, if a successful series can be put down.
