Hoffenheim II's results here at Dietmar-Hopp-Stadion in the Regionalliga: Südwest have been very modest with 3 victories, 1 draw and 6 defeats.

The fans are hoping that Hoffenheim II will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the Regionalliga: Südwest game against FSV Frankfurt (placed 16th).

Ahead of that match, Hoffenheim II won a home game hosting Stuttgart II (2-0).

This is expected to be a close game, with Hoffenheim perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Homburg form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Regionalliga: Südwest travels is 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Homburg, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Homburg's last game was the home draw against TuS RW Koblenz (1-1).

Prior to that result Homburg won their away game at Ulm. The scoreline was 2-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Homburg playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were three Homburg wins, six draws and zero defeats.

Homburg have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 10 league away games 14 goals have been scored. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Homburg's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 16 goals from these trips.
