Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Leipzig will be aiming to clinch their spot in the Champions League when they take on Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga round 32. The Red Bulls rolled over Borussia Dortmund 4-1 at the weekend and, as a result, the bookies see them as favourites to pick up all three points from Friday’s clash. Mohamed Simakan has joined Christopher Lenz in the recovery room, but there are no suspended players in the visiting team.
Pellegrino Matarazzo’s troops, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, but given their poor defensive performance in a 3-2 defeat to Bochum, away win should be considered. You should bear in mind that Leipzig have defeated Hoffenheim in each of their last five meetings in all competitions. Umut Tohumcu is banned for the match, while all Bambase Conte, Dennis Geiger, Stanley Nsoki, Max Moerstedt, Mergim Berisha, and Marco John are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
