Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
PreZero Arena will host Saturday’s football game between Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Bundesliga standings. Hoffenheim aim to put an end to their four-game winless run, but given their difficulties at the back, we are not tempted to put our money on the home side. Denmark international Robert Skov is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while all Grischa Promel, Ermin Bicakcic, Munas Dabbur, Luca Phillip, Benjamin Hubner, and Ihlas Bebou should miss out through injuries.
The Wolves, on the other hand, are on a three-game winning run ahead of the trip to Hoffenheim. Wolfsburg proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund, but beating Der Blau on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, both teams should be happy with one point from the match. The visitors will be without Lukas Nmecha, Kevin Paredes, Bartol Franjic, and Max Kruse this time out.
Highlighted Player (Pavel Kaderabek):
Pavel Kaderabek is a Czech Republic defender born on 25 April 1992, who has enjoyed a bright start to his professional career. Coming through the youth ranks at Sparta Prague and gaining some first team experience during a loan spell with Viktoria Zizkov, the right-sided defender was finally able to show what he is capable of during the 2012/2013 season and he didn’t need a lot of time to make the next step in his career.
After scoring impressive 10 goals in 76 league appearances for Sparta Prague, Kaderabek joined Bundesliga side Hoffenheim in the summer of 2015, shortly after he had established himself as a starting right-back in the Czech Republic national team.
The talented footballer helped Repre make it to the Euro 2016 finals by starting 9 qualifying matches, once again proving his killer instinct by scoring two goals. Pavel Kaderabek looks set to become one of leading players of the new generation and a big club move may not be far away either.
Highlighted Team (Wolfsburg):
Wolfsburg are a German football club founded in the aftermath of the World War II (1945). Die Wolfe (The Wolves) wear green and white shirts and they play their home games at Volkswagen Arena. The capacity of the stadium is 30,000 and it was opened on 13 December, 2002.
It is well known that German car manufacturer Volkswagen are the club’s main sponsors. Wolfsburg won the Bundesliga trophy in 2009 and the likes of Edin Dzeko, Grafite and Zvjezdan Misimovic were part of the club’s golden generation.
You should bear in mind that Grafite and Dzeko scored 54 goals between each other in the 2008/2009 Bundesliga campaign and that the team clinched the trophy thanks to a 5-1 win over Werder Bremen on 23 May, 2009. Die Wolfe won the German Cup trophy in 2015, with the team beating star-studded Borussia Dortmund 3-1 in the title game. Wolfsburg are a team that has no bitter rivals in German football.
