Hoffenheim vs RB Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips (23 November)

Hoffenheim have not been in the best of form on their own patch recently, winning just two of their previous 15 top-flight matches, and the Seagulls have actually been beaten in four of their last six home games. RB Leipzig, by way of contrast, have enjoyed eight wins in 13 the Bundesliga fixtures of late, and they have splashed the cash on new players this summer.

Hoffenheim had featured in 15 away games out of 21 in Bundesliga containing two goals or fewer, so achieving consistency had not proven too challenging in this area. For their part, RB Leipzig have not been pulling up too many trees in terms of excitement on their own patch either, with nine of their last 12 matches producing under 2.5 goals.

It has been quite an unusual experience to see Hoffenheim both score and concede during the same 91 minutes in a Bundesliga fixture recently, with this happening just three times out of a possible 11. Given that only six of the previous 21 top-flight games involving RB Leipzig have produced goals at both ends, at least one of the two keepers should pitch a shutout here.
