Command Analysis

Hoffenheim

Current form
Hoffenheim are having a bad season, with little success in both the Bundesliga and the Europa League. The change of coach did not help. Under Christian Ilzer, the villagers have won only two of 11 matches. In the LE, the team is in 27th place with six points after six rounds. After an away defeat to Braga with a score of 0:3, they failed to win at home in the last round against FCSB (0:0). In the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim won an important away victory over Holstein (3:1) the day before, which allowed them to consolidate their position in 15th place in the table, outside the relegation zone.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kabak, Promel, Tohumcu, Samassekou, Bulter, Bebou will not play today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Three of Hoffenheim last five matches have seen goals exchanged
- Six of Hoffenheim previous seven Europa League matches have seen three or fewer goals scored
Tentative line-up: Baumann - Kaderabek, Chaves, Akpoguma, Prass - Bischof, Stach - Glozek, Kramaric, Merstedt - Orban.

Tottenham Hotspur

Current form
Tottenham, like their upcoming opponent, are performing much below expectations this season. In the Premier League, Spurs are only in 15th place after 22 rounds and are unlikely to have a chance to fight for a place in the European Cups for the next season, given the 14-point gap from the top 6. In the last round, the defense once again played poorly, conceded three goals away from Everton and lost 2:3. In the Europa League, the Londoners had a good starting period, due to which, with 11 points, the team occupies an intermediate ninth place and has a good chance of finishing in the top 8. At the same time, Tottenham did not win a single game in the previous three rounds - a defeat and two draws.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tottenham have a full infirmary, which is largely responsible for their recent failures. Vicario, Forster, van de Ven, Udoji, Romero, Bissouma, Bentancur, Johnson, Werner, Odober and Solanke are all out due to injury today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Six of Tottenham last eight Europa League games have seen three or fewer goals scored
- Spurs have not lost in regulation time in 12 of their last 14 Europa League matches
Estimated line-up: Kinski - Porro, Gray, Davis, Spence - Bergvall, Sarr, Maddison - Kulusevski, Son, Moore.

1.54Bet Exact score 1:2
Hoffenheim have suffered two of their last three defeats by one goal
9.60Tip and bets
Tottenham have huge losses in the squad, which largely affects the latest results. At the same time, Hoffenheim does not demonstrate anything special, the only victory was won over the outsider of the Bundesliga Holstein, the team is far from the peak of form. We think that due to a powerful attack, where the same Son is in the lineup, Spurs are able to take three points and improve their chances of finishing in the top 8. Given the tempting odds, we recommend a betting tip for the guests in this pair.
Our prediction is Tottenham win with odds of 2.35
Bet on total
Tottenham biggest losses are in the defensive line, and they are unlikely to play to zero today. At the same time, Spurs have traditionally been strong in attack, with 11 goals already scored in the Europa League. We expect a productive game today.
The second bet is total over three goals with odds of 1.79
Bet on the first half
Hoffenheim have not had the best start to the season and have lost three of their last four games in the first half. There is a good chance that Tottenham will create a lead in the opening 45 minutes.
Prediction - Tottenham win with handicap (0) in the first half with odds of 1.77
