Hoffenheim decline continues despite the change of coach. Christian Ilzer was unable to improve the situation right away. The team has suffered defeats in the last three matches in all competitions with a total score of 0:8. In the Bundesliga standings, the "blue-whites" are in 14th place and are only two points away from the play-off zone. This week, in the 1/8 finals of the German Cup, Hoffenheim could not do anything against Wolfsburg (0:3).

Freiburg

Current form
In the last round, Freiburg won an important home victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach (3:1). This broke an unpleasant streak of four matches without a win in the championship. In the Bundesliga standings, the Brazilians from Breisgau occupy seventh place, but in case of a victory today they will rise to fifth place. This week, Julian Schuster charges played in the 1/8 finals of the German Cup with Arminia away and suffered an unexpected defeat with a score of 1:3. The game was memorable because Freiburg failed to convert a penalty for the fourth time this season. This time, Florent Musli made an unsuccessful penalty kick.

9.60Tip and bets
Hoffenheim have a series of three defeats in a row without a single goal scored. There is no progress in the hosts' game, and a match is ahead against an inconvenient opponent who won the previous three head-to-head matches. Freiburg interrupted their losing streak in the last round and will clearly try to build on their success. We believe that bookmakers are somewhat overestimating the hosts' current capabilities.
Our prediction is a Freiburg victory with an Asian handicap (0) at odds of 1.85
Bet on total
In the last three head-to-head matches, at least three goals have been scored. Hoffenheim defense regularly fails, while Freiburg is currently not distinguished by stable actions at its goal. We recommend a prediction for the total over.
The second bet is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.70
Bet on corners
Hoffenheim have won their last nine home games against Freiburg on corners. We don't think that streak will end today.
Prediction: Hoffenheim win on corners with odds of 1.87
