Team News

Hoffenheim
FC Heidenheim
  • Grischa Prömel is available after suspension, but Ozan Kabak is on the naughty step after picking up five yellow cards.
  • Diadié Samassékoui is away at AFCON.
  • Dennis Geiger has problems with his adductors, while Mërgim Berisha and Marco John have suffered ACL injuries and both will be out long-term.
  • Marvin Pieringer is available after suspension, while Elidon Qenaj and Thomas Keller both suffered long-term ACL injuries.

Prediction

  • The recent defeat against Bayern was the only time in the last 22 games that Hoffenheim have not found the net.
  • Heidenheim have conceded a league-high eight penalties, but are seriously punching above their weight on the back of a five-game unbeaten run.
  • Hoffenheim won the reverse fixture 3-2 despite trailing by two goals.
  • A draw could be the best option with goals at both ends.
