Hoffenheim form and stats
Happy days for Hoffenheim in their previous game, a Bundesliga match away at Köln (placed 12th) that ended with a 3-2 victory. A 2-2 draw away in the DFB Pokal before that, with Chemnitzer FC (after extra-time, 2-3 on penalties) the opponent.
Andrej Kramarić was absolutely essential when Hoffenheim beat Köln 3-2, scoring three goals. Some amazing scenes last match, when Andrej Kramarić scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time.
Last season, Hoffenheim's league statistics were 15 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses, resulting in a 6th position in the Bundesliga. Over these 34 matches they scored 53 goals and conceded 53. Playing at home last season Hoffenheim managed 7-1-9 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 37 conceded.
Bayern München form and stats
Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. München goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is eager to challenge this, with his 237 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.
Impressive finishing from Leon Goretzka, Jamal Musiala, Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Müller, Serge Gnabry (3) and Leroy Sané secured the home win 8-0 against Schalke 04 in their previous game. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Paris Saint Germain at their stadium, the result 1-0.
As you can tell from the results above, Bayern München was very dominant against Schalke 04, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 8-0 (!) with Leon Goretzka, Jamal Musiala, Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Müller, Serge Gnabry (3) and Leroy Sané providing the goals. It's hard not to mention Serge Gnabry's lethal finishing against Schalke 04. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.
As mentioned earlier, Bayern München will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 18 wins (eleven by two or more goals winning margin), three draws and zero surprising defeats.
