Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
After surviving Borussia M’gladbach at Borussia-Park, Bayern Munich will look to retain top position in the standings when they take on Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga round 17. The mighty Bavarians are eager to increase their advantage over Bayer Leverkusen and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Hoffenheim. Kingsley Coman is widely expected to return to the starting XI after producing a fine display as a substitute at the weekend, while centre-back Dayot Upamecano is back from suspension. Key midfielder Jamal Musiala is rated doubtful for the home side.
Hoffenheim, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Borussia M’gladbach and Wolfsburg and given their negative record at Allianz Arena, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed from the trip to Munich. The likes of Bebou, Grillitsch, Kabak, Lenz, Promel, and Tohumcu remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Harry Kane):
Widely regarded as one of England’s best strikers at the moment, Harry Kane enjoyed a meteoric rise at Tottenham Hotspur, scoring 21 Premier League goals during the 2014/2015 campaign to be voted PFA Young Player of the Year.
The highly rated striker went on to surpass that achievement the following season as he helped Tottenham Hotspur mount a serious title challenge for the first time in club’s recent history and he made seamless transition to international football. Kane scored four goals in his first ten appearances for England to prove he was here to stay and at the same time established himself as a first choice striker in Roy Hodgson’s squad ahead of the Euro 2016 finals.
Kane is a modern striker, who is extremely dangerous in the opposition box, but it was some outstanding goals from distance as well as link-up play with teammates that earned him an excellent reputation in world football. Kane is expected to lead both Tottenham and England in years to come, that is if he can resist the lure of top European clubs that continue to cast admiring glances his way.
