Match description
Form analysis favors Borussia Dortmund: the visitors have won 4 of their last 5 matches and average 2.4 points per game, while Hoffenheim has not won any of their last 5 fixtures (0 wins) and averages 0.4 points. Offensively Hoffenheim at home scores 2.07 goals per game with xG 1.87 and 6 shots on target, whereas Dortmund away averages 1.93 goals and xG 1.44 with 4.14 shots on target; this indicates the hosts generate more chances, but the visitors’ higher finishing efficiency (17% vs 13%) narrows the numerical advantage. Defensively the difference is significant: Hoffenheim conceded 17 goals in the last 5 matches (3.4 per game) and concedes 1.21 goals at home, while Dortmund have conceded 4 goals in the last 5 and only 1.07 away; additionally Dortmund have 36% clean sheets away versus Hoffenheim’s 21% at home. Hoffenheim also have 14% of home games without scoring, while Dortmund have 0% such away matches, which increases confidence that the visitors will find the net; considering the hosts’ weak defence in the recent period and Dortmund’s superior efficiency and form, I predict an away win.
