TSG Hoffenheim vs Bayern Munich Predictions

Hoffenheim face tough test

Back over 3.5 goals in Saturday’s clash between Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich at WIRSOL Rhein-Neckar-Arena. The hosts have scored in seven games in a row, including in a 4-4 draw with Monchengladbach two weeks ago.

Champions Bayern Munich, who have won 24 of their 33 games this season, sit top of the table, while Hoffenheim are 15th having won seven, drawn 11 and lost 15. The hosts would be safe from the relegation play-off with a point, but even a narrow defeat should be enough as they have a three-point advantage as well as a six-goal cushion over 16th-placed Heidenheim heading into this final round of fixtures.

Hoffenheim are without a win in four Bundesliga games, having drawn two in a row, and Bayern Munich are tough opponents despite having been crowned champions. They are unbeaten in nine of their last ten matches in the league, winning five of the last seven.

Hoffenheim drew 2-2 with Wolfsburg in their last game, keeping up their run of matches with four goals or more. They have avoided defeat in nine of the 22 games this season in which they have conceded first (41%).

No team has had more Bundesliga games with over 3.5 goals than Bayern Munich this season, with four or more goals in 19 of their 33 games. Hoffenheim’s last four matches have each produced over 3.5 goals.

Both teams are in goalscoring form. Bayern Munich lead the way with 95 goals in the Bundesliga this season, scoring three or more times in five of their last seven games. Hoffenheim have also been finding the net regularly, scoring two goals or more in five consecutive matches.

Bayern Munich can secure a comfortable win, with a 3-1 scoreline appealing for correct-score bettors. Bayern have won two of the last three meetings against Hoffenheim them by at least two goals.
