1899 Hoffenheim, Recent Form1899 Hoffenheim had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 1-1 draw against Augsburg. In that game they had 66% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Augsburg who had 11 attempts and 6 on target.
He will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 14 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 11 goals they've managed to net. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 15 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their the last 8 games at home.
A recent poor run of home form for achtzehn99 in the league has seen them lose 3 games in a row at The PreZero Arena.
On an individual basis, Wout Weghorst has scored in each of 1899 Hoffenheim's last 3 league games.
Mainz 05, Recent FormMainz 05 will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Darmstadt 98, which ran out a 0-0 draw. In that game they recorded 44 % of the possession, with 11 attempts on goal, 1 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 10 shots on goal.
When it comes to attacking power he will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 10 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
There will be mixed feelings from Die Nullfünfer, having been undefeated in their last 3 away league games, but drawn the last 3 of these games.

In the past 6 away matches at Hoffenheim in the league, Die Nullfünfer have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters.
