Hoffenheim hosts Eintracht Frankfurt in round 14 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, December 4th at PreZero Arena (Sinsheim)
In the last round, Hoffenheim did what it does not manage to do very often in the current season — it earned three points on a foreign pitch. Let me remind you that the Blue-Whites were stronger than Greuther Furth with a score of 3-6. It was already the 2nd victory in a row in the championship, and the 3rd in the last four matches. Hoffenheim was recently in a lower part of the standings, and today it is on the 5th line with 20 points scored. The gap to the Champions League zone is only two points. I cannot but note that it is Hoffenheim who scores the most outside the TOP-4 of the Bundesliga standings (27 goals). However, the team is far from doing well in defense (20 goals conceded). The men of Sebastian Hoeness feel quite confident in their native arena. In six home matches, they gained five victories and one draw and suffered only one defeat.

Now you can understand why the Eintracht management appointed Oliver Glasner. Recently, the team has stepped up significantly and shown a streak of three consecutive victories. The total unbeaten streak amounts to four rounds (three wins and one draw). By the way, the Eagles scored two goals against their opponents in all the victorious matches. More recently, Eintracht Frankfurt was very close to the relegation zone, but ten points scored in four matches helped it to fix the situation. Now the Eagles are on the 12th line with 18 points in the assets. The gap from the relegation zone is now five points. Eintracht Frankfurt is among the top four teams in terms of results recorded on foreign pitches: three victories, two draws, and two defeats with a goal difference of 10-11.
In the last championship, Hoffenheim lost to Eintracht Frankfurt at home (1-3). Let’s note that seven out of eight previous head-to-head confrontations between the Blue-Whites and the Eagles ended with an exchange of goals scored. Both teams are in excellent condition at the moment. Of course, their upcoming match promises to be very interesting. But it is extremely difficult to predict the outcome. Hoffenheim performs well at home. But Eintracht Frankfurt players show themselves very well on foreign pitches. I will add that the Blue-Whites have already scored 14 goals in six matches at their native stadium (with five conceded). Most likely, Hoffenheim will attack more as the home team. And it is likely to score at least once. But the Eagles will also not sit back on heels, so we will probably see goals in both nets.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score — yes
