Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Following a 1-1 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia M’gladbach will look to secure a top-ten finish when they face Hoffenheim on Matchday 34. Die Fohlen are not enjoying a season to remember, and, no doubt, the club chiefs will have to reinforce the squad in the summer transfer window. The good news for the hosts is that midfielder Kouadio Kone is back from suspension, while all Jordan Beyer, Tony Jantschke, Christoph Kramer, Laszlo Benes, and Marcus Thuram are sidelined with injuries.
Hoffenheim, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Freiburg and Bayer Leverkusen. Since the visitors will be with guards down in Saturday’s clash as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Munas Dabbur serves a one-game ban, while all Baumgartner, Grillitsch, Geiger, Nordtveit, Richards, John, Hubner, and Bicakcic remain in the recovery room.
