Hoffenheim vs Heidenheim: When Hoffenheim and Heidenheim square off at the PreZero Arena on Saturday, they’ll be looking to win their first Bundesliga match of the year. With just two points separating the two teams, we expect an exciting mid-table matchup as they compete for a berth in Europe.
Hoffenheim lost 3-2 against Freiburg at the Europa-Park Stadion on Saturday, failing to halt the damage. Now, Pellegrino Matarazzo’s team has lost four of their previous five games, including three losses in a row since the start of the year, and has only managed one draw.
Hoffenheim is still in the running for European qualification despite their recent fall in performance; they are now four points outside of the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying slot, sitting eighth in the Bundesliga standings.
Conversely, Heidenheim’s previous game ended in a 1-1 tie with Wolfsburg, meaning they had to split the spoils for the second straight game.
Following their 2-1 loss to RB Leipzig in December, Frank Schmidt’s team has now gone six games without losing in all competitions, with four victories and two draws.
Heidenheim, who finished ninth in the league with 22 points from 18 games, had an amazing debut in the top division after winning promotion from the second division the previous season.
