Hoffenheim is in 6th place (51 points) and plays an open game at home. Their home statistics are telling: both teams score in 64% of their matches at PreZero Arena, with an average total of 3.29 goals per game. However, the hosts' form leaves much to be desired – they have not won in four consecutive Bundesliga matches. While they score regularly at home (2.07 goals per match), they also concede in 79% of their home matches.
Borussia Dortmund is in second place (64 points) and is on a fantastic run: they have scored in 100% of their away matches (they have never left the field without a goal on the road this season). However, their away defense is far from ideal – they concede in 64% of their away matches and have kept only 36% of their away clean sheets. In eight of their last 10 away games, the total has exceeded 2.5 goals.
The statistics speak for themselves: in 66% of Hoffenheim's matches this season, both teams have scored. Moreover, in seven of the hosts' last 10 home games, the goals have been exchanged. Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, consistently scores on the road, but regularly concedes.
