Hoffenheim vs Leipzig: Bundesliga Match Prediction
During the international break, Hoffenheim had a coaching resignation. Christian Ilzer will lead the team against Leipzig on November 23. How much will this affect the outcome of the upcoming match and what bets should you choose? – the answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Hoffenheim
GermanyCurrent form
Pellegrino Matarazzo headed Hoffenheim for almost two years. However, given the unsuccessful season, the decision was made to resign. He was replaced by Austrian specialist Christian Ilser, who successfully managed Sturm for more than four years. The coach has a difficult task, as he will have to "pull" the team out of the crisis. The most deplorable situation is in the Bundesliga, where Hoffenheim is in 15th place with nine points after 10 rounds. In the Europa League, things are slightly better - five points after four rounds and an interim 19th place. In the last match before the international break, the team played a 0:0 away draw with Augsburg.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kabak, Nsoki, Lenz, Prömel, Ole Becker and Bebu will not play today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Three of Hoffenheim last five matches ended in a 0-0 draw at half-time
- Hoffenheim have gone winless in eight of their last nine Bundesliga matches
Tentative line-up: Oliver Baumann - Kevin Akpoguma, Anton Stach, Arthur Chavez - David Jurasek, Florian Grillitsch, Umut Deger Tohumcu, Tom Bischof, Pavel Kadeřabek - Andrej Kramaric - Marius Bülter.
RB Leipzig
GermanyCurrent form
Leipzig is having a successful season in the Bundesliga, but is failing in the Champions League. In the national championship, the "bulls" are in second place after 10 rounds, five points behind Bayern and only one point ahead of Eintracht. In the Champions League, Marco Rose men are in a critical situation - not a single point after four rounds and 32nd place in the table. It is alarming that Leipzig has not won in the last three matches in all tournaments. In the previous round of the Bundesliga, they failed to open the defense of Borussia Mönchengladbach on their home field (0:0). Apparently, the team really needed a break.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lukeba, Raum, Schlager and Simons will be out today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- In six of Leipzig previous eight Bundesliga matches, at least one team failed to score
- Leipzig have scored in 16 of their last 17 away matches in the domestic championship
Probable line-up: Peter Gulacsi – El Chadail Bitshiabu, Willi Orban, Lukas Klostermann – Antonio Nuza, Kevin Kampl, Arthur Vermehren, Benjamin Henrichs – Christoph Baumgartner, Yussuf Poulsen – Lois Openda.

14.00Tip and bets
It is unlikely that the change of coach will immediately bring positive results in the camp of "Hoffenheim". The team has had very serious problems in attack recently, and a game against "Leipzig" is coming up, which has the most reliable line of defense in the Bundesliga. The guests have an advantage in class, a more organized and stable game, plus the "bulls" have won five of the six previous face-to-face confrontations.
Our prediction is a Leipzig victory with odds of 2.14
Bet on total
In 10 Bundesliga games, Leipzig have conceded only five goals. Hoffenheim have had significant attacking problems in recent games and are unlikely to score more than once against an inconvenient opponent today.
The second bet is Hoffenheim individual total goals under 1.5 with odds of 1.63
Bet on the first half
We believe that Hoffenheim will be able to put up a decent fight against the Bulls in the first half. It is no coincidence that the hosts have drawn with their opponents in three of their last five matches in the starting 45, and invariably with the same score of 0:0.
Forecast - draw in the first half with odds of 2.55
