Eintracht Frankfurt vs TSG 1899 Hoffenheim: Match Prediction
The sporting director at Eintracht Frankfurt cited defensive problems as the main reason for Dino Toppmöller's dismissal. Over the course of the season the head coach failed to improve that area. The side have already conceded 39 goals, although last season the total for the whole campaign was only slightly higher at 46. All three clean sheets this term were recorded at home, and those were achieved only against relegation-battling opponents. At the same time the visitors' attack remains potent, having produced eight goals in the last three rounds.
TSG 1899 Hoffenheim have significantly improved defensively compared with last season. However, away matches are less encouraging: Hoffenheim conceded in 11 of their last 13 Bundesliga away games. The club has also scored in 10 of those fixtures, and in seven cases they scored at least twice.
Bookmakers assign a small probability to goals at both ends in this meeting, a pattern that has occurred in 12 consecutive head-to-head Bundesliga meetings between the clubs. Given the current form of both sides, it is reasonable to expect more than one goal from each team.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score Over 1.5
