Germany - Bundesliga: Hoffenheim vs Dortmund Hoffenheim made up for the defeat by Wolfsburg, having recorded the
convincing 4:0 win in Koln in the last round. Dortmund managed to avoid
defeat in the sixth league game, though they could have even won Mainz
instead of drawing goalless.
Hoffenheim on the rise
The
team that last season were the champions of the autumn part of the
season again joined the title race and five wins in the last six games
make them the most efficient team in the league so far. Rangnick’s men
demolished Koln in the last round, while Obasi, Ba and Ibisevic once
again confirmed their indisputable quality and together with Carlos
Eduardo improved the goal margin that might turn out to be crucial in
the end of the season. Attacking formation with three forwards is an
excellent recipe and Rangnick has no intention of changing it. That is
why we expect goals galore here and Sporting bet offer 1.83 for Hoffenheim to score over 2.5 goals.
Together
with Obasi, Vedad Ibisevic is team’s best scorer and these two strikers
joined by Ba will create problems for Dortmund’s defense. Last season
Hoffenheim managed to record a convincing 4:1 triumph on their debut
against the millionaires and precisely these two strikers were the
biggest threat for visiting defense. Hoffenheim will try to repeat the
success, so they will get off to an aggressive start. Sporting Bet offer 1.55 for the hosts to open the score and we think it is worth a shot.
Dortmund are again drawing experts
Dortmund
drew almost the half of the games so far, thus continuing the tradition
from last season. Last weekend the millionaires were the better side in
the duel against Mainz at home, but they didn’t have enough luck to
score a winner, mostly thanks to in-form visiting keeper, experienced
Muller. Coach Klopp opted for a pretty offensive formation for the
match against Hoffenheim, so Zidan and Valdez will join the teams best
scorer Barrios up front. Having in mind that both teams will field
three strikers, we suggest that you use 888 Sport’s decent offer of 1.73 for both teams to score.
Dortmund
improved their form and they have gone last six games unbeaten, but if
they plan to join the contention for Europe, they will have to continue
the positive run. Lucas Barrios turned out to be the big boost for the
millionaires, as in the last six games he scored five goals. This is an
excellent striker, who will definitely be the biggest threat for
Hoffenheim’s keeper and Bet365 offer 3.00 for Barrios to score again.
Betting verdict
Last
season Hoffenheim demolished Dortmund in front of their fans, while the
millionaires only managed to score a consolation goal minutes before
time. Hosts are currently in much better form than the millionaires,
but the visitors shouldn't e underestimated as they rarely lose this
season. Considering the offensive approach of both managers we suggest
betting on over 2.5 goals as the safest choice.
