Wolfsburg, Recent FormNiko Kovač will have some work to do building up his players after their 6-0 away thrashing at the hands of Borussia Dortmund. In that game they had 43% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Borussia Dortmund who had 20 attempts and 10 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 home games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing at home this season, with 7 draws in 15 home league games.
1899 Hoffenheim, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-1 home win over Eintracht Frankfurt in their last league game, 1899 Hoffenheim will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They achieved 31% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Eintracht Frankfurt's tally of 19 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Pellegrino Matarazzo will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 9 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 26 of their 31 games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Andrej Kramarić will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for 1899 Hoffenheim.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 1-2 win for Wolfsburg.
Wolfsburg have scored in each of their last 14 games at home in the league against Hoffenheim.
Andrej Kramarić will be feeling confident of netting goals for Hoffenheim in this one against Wolfsburg with his scoring record of 4 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
Wolfsburg manager Niko Kovač has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Maxence Lacroix (Shoulder), Lukas Nmecha (Tendon) and Paulo Otávio (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pellegrino Matarazzo has a number of injury concerns in his Hoffenheim squad to contend with: Justin Che (Knee), Pavel Kadeřábek (Hamstring) and Kevin Vogt (Knee)
