TSG Hoffenheim form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Bundesliga ended in defeat. Last season TSG Hoffenheim had these away match statistics: Played 17; won 5, drew 3 and lost 9.

Baumgartner, Kabak and Dabbur scored in Hoffenheim's previous match, the home game against Bochum that ended 3-2. What a finish in the last match, as TSG Hoffenheim came back from being down 0-2 and secured a very satisfying victory through Dabbur's goal in the 88th minute. Dabbur came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Bochum last time out, making the manager Breitenreiter feel like a tactical genius. Defender Kabak was the best team player with a rating of 7.81. Kabak scored one goal and won 8 of 15 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Borussia Mönchengladbach wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

1 goal so far away for TSG Hoffenheim, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 1 league match away.

Head 2 Head

Bayer 04 Leverkusen have won at least one point in the last 4 games (2-2-0) versus TSG Hoffenheim.
