7th October 2022 – 20:30, PreZero Arena, Sinsheim
Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen will face each other in the opening match of the Bundesliga 9th round. The hosts aim to reach the top-four zone, while the away side searches for its chance to get into the continental qualification spot.
Hoffenheim Preview & Team News
Hoffenheim prepares for this match following a 1-1 Bundesliga drawn result versus Hertha Berlin. It was their second straight draw, and the home side is now 5th, being three points behind Union Berlin and Freiburg. Their more recent scorelines highlight the fact that much solidity has been shown by the Hoffenheim defense. Hoffenheim have been miserly, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their last six matches standing at three. They enjoy a good start to the campaign, and Hoffenheim fans hope their team can secure the Champions League ticket. Ihlas Bebou (Knee Problems), Ermin Bicakcic (Fitness), and Benjamin Hübner (Medial Collateral Ligament Injury) will not be able to play for Hoffenheim boss André Breitenreiter.
Werder Bremen Preview & Team News
Werder Bremen will come into the game after a 5-1 Bundesliga win to defeat Borussia Mönchengladbach in their last fixture. That victory launched the newly-promoted visitors to the 8th spot and just two points behind their upcoming rivals. Showing their partiality to action-packed encounters, we’ve had goals 23 times in the last six matches in which Werder Bremen have played, yielding a mean average of 3.83 goals each fixture. Opposing teams have hit 9 of this grand total. Werder Bremen manager Ole Werner has a number of players out of action. Jean Manuel Mbom (Achilles tendon rupture) and Dikeni Salifou (Pulled hamstring at the adductors) won’t be making appearances.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
It is going to be an interesting clash in which both sides have solid chances of picking points. Therefore, we wouldn’t be surprised if the match ends in a draw.
Goals Market Prediction
Although the hosts have been pretty tough to beat in the back, Werder Bremen has been quite clinical in the final third. That’s why we think both teams will find the back of the net in this encounter.
