Command Analysis

St. Pauli

Current form
Back in January, St. Pauli had a good run of three matches, when they scored seven points and broke away from the relegation zone. It seems that the pirates have calmed down, as they did not win a single victory in the next six matches in the Bundesliga. Moreover, there was a string of five defeats in a row, which was interrupted in the last round thanks to a 1-1 draw with Wolfsburg.
By the start of round 26, St. Pauli is in 15th place in the table, and the gap from the transition zone is only two points. Obviously, the situation is heating up, but there is no breakthrough in the game. As before, nothing works out in attack: only one goal scored in six previous meetings. Since the beginning of the season, the Pirates have scored 19 times in 25 league matches, the worst score among all Bundesliga teams. Undoubtedly, Alexander Blessin's defensive formations were quite good, they conceded only 30 goals, but it's hard to score points on a regular basis only due to defense.
Since the beginning of the season, St. Pauli has very rarely pleased its fans with home successes. The Pirates scored only nine points at home, while they scored 13 points on the road.

Burchert, Mets, Sands, Gilavogi and Zoller will not play today due to injuries.

Hoffenheim

Current form
Hoffenheim, after finishing their performances in the Europa League, gradually managed to stabilize their results in the Bundesliga. At the moment, the Villagers are on a four–match winless streak - two draws and two wins. Separately, we note the home draw with Stuttgart (1:1). Much of the progress was achieved due to the fact that we managed to establish a defensive game: in the previous four matches, we did not concede more than one goal.
In the standings, after 25 rounds, Hoffenheim is on the 13th line with a solid lead from the relegation zone. However, it will be difficult to claim something serious, since the gap even from the 12th position is seven points. In the last round, Christian Ilzer's team played on their own field with Heidenheim, opened the scoring in the first half, but allowed the opponent to win back in the second 45 minutes (1-1). In general, a draw was a natural outcome in that confrontation.
It is worth noting that Hoffenheim has improved significantly on the road. Since the beginning of the season, the team has scored three victories in foreign arenas, and all of them were obtained in four previous away meetings.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hoffenheim usually has a lot of losses in the squad, but it's not the first time the team has been playing with such problems. Chaves will not play today due to suspension. They won't be able to help their team due to injuries. Kabak, Lenz, Samassek, Premel, Glozhek and Bebu. Bulter's entry into the field is questionable.

1.38Tip and bets
We believe that in the upcoming meeting it is worthwhile, first of all, to consider the option of betting on a total of fewer goals scored. St. Pauli has obvious problems in attack that have not been resolved. In the last five matches, the Pirates have scored only one goal against their opponents, but they do not allow themselves outright failures in defense. Hoffenheim is not as dangerous offensively as they are on their own field, and in general they are now betting on defense, it is no coincidence that they did not score more than one goal in five of the six previous league matches. In a duel between such opponents with obvious offensive problems, you should not expect more than two goals.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals for a coefficient of 1.79
Betting on the outcome
Largely due to the factor of the St. Pauli home field, it gets the status of a favorite in the line of bookmakers. At the same time, the Pirates have won only twice at home in 12 matches played in the Bundesliga since the beginning of the season. According to the current results, the hosts also have no advantage over Hoffenheim. We believe that, taking into account the coefficients set, it is worth giving preference to guests in this pair.
The second bet is Hoffenheim's victory with an Asian handicap (0) with a coefficient of 2.49
Betting on corners
On the corners, it is worth paying attention to the fact that Hoffheim has lost in three of the last four matches. It is unlikely that you will be able to achieve your maximum on this indicator on the road today.
