Hoffenheim to boost European hopes against Wolfsburg
Hoffenheim vs VfL Wolfsburg - 15/02/2020
2510
On Saturday afternoon, Hoffenheim will look to boost their chances of securing European football for next season when they host Wolfsburg.
Hoffenheim are honing in on the Bundesliga top-six, as the home side are now just two points outside the European spots. However, a 1-0 defeat at Freiburg last time out means that Alfred Schreuder’s team have won two and lost two of their last four league matches.
The game at Freiburg ended a run of high-scoring games in the Bundesliga for Hoffenheim, as their previous four league games had produced under 2.5 goals.
A patchy recent run of form on home soil in the Bundesliga has not helped their chances of landing a prestigious European berth. A record of two wins in six outings at home in the Bundesliga is certainly not the record of a team that finished in the European places.
Hoffenheim’s recent home games have been high-scoring, as there have been over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven Bundesliga games at the PreZero Arena.
Wolfsburg have endured a highly inconsistent campaign in the German top-flight. The Wolves currently sit tenth-place in the table, seven points outside the Bundesliga’s top six.
The Wolves have taken four points from their last two league games, winning 4-2 at struggling Paderborn before a 1-1 home draw with Fortuna Dusseldorf in their last league outing. The draw against Dusseldorf means that the visitors have won just one of their last six Bundesliga matches.
It also means that both teams have scored in six of Wolfsburg’s last seven matches in the German top-flight. The recent win at Paderborn ended a three-game losing streak on their travels in the Bundesliga for the Wolves.
Forebet predicts that Hoffenheim will boost their chances of landing a European spot by recording a victory in a high scoring encounter.
