Hoffenheim continue their excellent momentum at home, entering this clash on a perfect five-game home winning streak (3.00 PPG). Given Leverkusen's attacking potential, a high-scoring 2-2 draw is on the cards. Hoffenheim's 5–1 demolition of M’gladbach once again highlighted their attacking depth, with an impressive 3.60 goals scored per home match. Defender Albian Hajdari returns from suspension, giving Christian Ilzer another defensive option, although Hoffenheim still concede regularly (0.80 per home game) and see 80% BTTS at home.
The BayArena outfit, on the other hand, head into the match well-rested after their midweek fixture against HSV was postponed, and their away numbers are among the strongest in the league. They’ve won 80% of away matches (2.40 PPG), scoring 1.80 goals per game while allowing just 0.80. However, their overall form (LDWWL) shows some inconsistency, especially in bigger tests, and their xGA away (2.15) suggests they concede more chances than the results imply. Towering defender Edmond Tapsoba is a major doubt.
Considering attacking metrics on both sides and 74% H2H over 2.5, we are tempted to place our bets on Over 2.5 goals. Additionally, BTTS and Over 3.5 goals markets seem appealing.
This Bundesliga match will be played on Saturday 17 January 2026 at 14:30.
