For many years, the lack of title fight and the monotony at the top in the Bundesliga was discussed again and again. Not only Bayern and Dortmund are battling for the cup this season, the fight for tickets to international competitions is also high. Fourth place currently occupied by Eintracht Frankfurt and enough for the Champions League is still being attacked by some teams, including Borussia Mönchengladbach and TSG Hoffenheim, who will face each other in direct duel on Saturday. Both flirt with the premier class, but would of course take the Europa League as an alternative, because this is far from guaranteed.

Today’s Betting Tips Gladbach vs Hoffenheim

Currently Gladbach is in fifth place and has 51 points, three points behind fourth place. Hoffenheim are in seventh place and have one point less than Borussia in their account. For both of them, it would be enough for the Europa League at the moment, but the competition in the eighth and ninth places is on the back of both teams. Nevertheless, we would dare before the game between Gladbach and Hoffenheim the prediction that both teams in the coming season will be represented internationally. As far as the outcome of the game is concerned, we tend to be closer to the guests. Pretty sure there should be hits. The 0-0 in the first leg of the TSG remained the only time this season without a goal. As a rule, the Borussia is always to have at least one hit. This could mean that in the game between Gladbach and Hoffenheim a tip on “both teams to score“ could be quite appropriate. It is clear that the loser will have big problems in terms of qualification for the international business. Therefore, we expect an intense, groundbreaking game.

Gladbach – Statistics & Current Form

What has become of the home strength of the foals? The first nine home games this season were all won. Meanwhile, there has been no victory in the last six games in Borussia Park. The Heimnimbus has since been blown away so much. In addition, the foals have made only two of the last eleven Bundesliga games victorious. The decision to renounce Dieter Hecking in the coming season, comes with these numbers by no means. Nevertheless, the coach is still highly motivated. He has not lost sight of the goal of leading the team into international competition. Overall, it is hard to understand that Gladbach crashed in the second half of the season. For Christmas you could even dream of the title in Borussia Park, but now the Elf from the Lower Rhine has come back to the bottom of the facts. Even in the duel between Gladbach and Hoffenheim the odds of a home win are therefore almost taboo.

This is also due to the fact that the foals recalled an absolute minus performance last weekend in Stuttgart. The VfB had received in the weeks before no leg on the ground, but got development aid from the Borussia and could beat the Gladbacher 1-0.

“For me, what happened in Stuttgart could not be explained, because we also saw that whenever we can take a step, anything blocks the team.” – Dieter Hecking

Then Dieter Hecking was served properly. In search of reasons, the coach came to the conclusion that his team is inhibited when they can achieve something. These are not good conditions to bring the season to a successful conclusion. On Saturday Dieter Hecking will continue to miss the long-term injured Mamadou Doucoure and Lars Stindl. Christoph Kramer is missing after the fifth yellow card. For Michael Lang and Raffael the match on Saturday should probably come too early. Some important players will not be available to Borussia. Maybe Dieter Hecking will therefore work on the tactics a little. A 4-3-3 system seems logical against Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim – Statistics & Current Form

For Julian Nagelsmann, as well as for Dieter Hecking, the farewell tour is in full swing. Three times he will be in the Bundesliga still on the sidelines of TSG Hoffenheim, before he moves to Leipzig. It will not be the most successful year of the Kraichgauer under Nagelsmann. A big problem is that you always give guides out of hand. Last weekend, TSG’s happened for the eleventh time this season. After a lead, there were still nine draws and even two defeats this season. With this you have already given away 24 points for a lead. Overall, Hoffenheim is very accurate, especially in foreign countries. 38 goals are already in away games. Hoffenheim has the opportunity to become the sixth team in Bundesliga history to crack the barrier of 40 away goals in a single season. This is definitely a sign of outward strength. Therefore, we can imagine to make a prediction in the game between Gladbach and Hoffenheim on the guests.

However, there was a rude awakening for the Kraichgauer last week. At home there was a thick 1: 4 pack against VfL Wolfsburg, after all, a counterparty to a place in international business.

“The interesting thing about the constellation is that everything is open in the fight for Europe.” – Julian Nagelsmann

It was the first defeat after 16 points in six games. It was Hoffenheim in the ninth minute by Adam Szalai even with 1: 0 in the lead and had after a quarter of an hour penalty by Andrej Kramaric the possibility to increase to 2: 0. This chance was missed and in the end it was 1: 4. An almost sure victory was given out of hand again. Despite the setback, Julian Nagelsmann really wants to fight for Europe and even sees the story as much more attractive. Maybe this is because Kerem Demirbay will return to the squad on Saturday. Benjamin Hübner could do it until the kick-off. Alternatively, Stefan Posch would probably play in the three-string, with a switch to four-chain seems not excluded. In any case, Dennis Geiger, Robin Hack and Joelinton, who are still in the build-up after injury, will be missing.

Expected formation of Hoffenheim:
↳ Baumann – Posch, Voigt, Bicakcic – Kaderabek, Schulz, Grillitsch – Demirbay, Amiri – Belfodil, Kramaric
↳ Coach: Nagelsmann

Last matches from Hoffenheim:

⚽️ 28.04.2019 – TSG Hoffenheim Vs. Wolfsburg 1: 4 (Bundesliga)
⚽️ 20.04.2019 – Schalke Vs. TSG Hoffenheim 2: 5 (Bundesliga)
⚽️ 14.04.2019 – TSG Hoffenheim Vs. Hertha 2: 0 (Bundesliga)

Gladbach vs Hoffenheim Direct Comparison & Statistics Highlights

What has been forgotten a little, is that Gladbach and Hoffenheim in 2008 together rose from the second division to the upper house. Overall, these two opponents have faced each other in 25 games to date. In direct comparison, the Kraichgauer are with 9: 6 victories in ten draws ahead. Recently, there was a frequent draw between these two clubs. So ended the first leg last December with a division of points. In Sinsheim they parted with a 0-0 after Borussia keeper Yann Sommer caught a terrific day.

Gladbach vs Hoffenheim Betting Tips and Predictions Analyzed

The Gladbacher come in this second round not rightly. Only two wins from the last eleven games are a slap in the face for the ambitions to play internationally in the next season. For six home games Borussia could not retract a threesome. Therefore, we would give in the game between Gladbach and Hoffenheim no tip for a home win. The 1: 4 defeat of Kraichgauer against Wolfsburg, however, we assess as a slip-up, especially since it had the TSG in their own hands to win the game.

Key facts – Gladbach vs Hoffenheim tips

? Gladbach has been waiting for home games for six games and only brought two wins from the last eleven Bundesliga matches.
? Hoffenheim has already had to give away eleven times this season.
? The TSG has lost in the last week after 16 points from six games once again.

We think that the shape of 1899 is significantly better and would therefore assume that an away win is more in the range of the possible. But we are a bit cautious and would therefore want to hedge our tip. In the match between Gladbach and Hoffenheim we would use the betting odds of just over 1.70 and in case of a draw we would take back our bet. In our view, this is the better option compared to the double chance X2.
