Hoffenheim - RB Leipzig betting tips and odds

Hoffenheim will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though RB Leipzig don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 3.10 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

A difficult match is ahead of Team from Leipzig. They have a big fish to fry but we’ve seen them do it in the past and it’s certain they can do it again.

Hoffenheim’s previous away game against Köln saw a lot of back-and-forth to little avail. Neither side managed to pull ahead throughout the match and ultimately settled for a 1:1 draw.

The Red Bulls gave the fans at their home stadium quite a show in their previous game against Bayer Leverkusen, snagging a decisive 2:0 victory. The victory itself was somewhat predictable, but the first-half lead and notable lead speaks volumes about their form.

Based on their recent performance, The Red Bulls’s largest issue seems to be defence, especially in away games. With 7 conceded goals in their 3 previous visiting matches, Over 3.5 Goals markets seem like a solid betting option.

After just 13 games played so far in the Bundesliga, the away team are sitting at number 6th on the table. While that’s not a bad result, they can do better, so they’ll want to beat Hoffenheim no matter how hard it may seem.

Looking back at the head-to-head stats for this matchup, Hoffenheim are more than able to beat the odds and come out on top. They did so last season, even securing a considerable goal lead. Leipzig are still the favourites, though, and the betting odds are firmly in their favour.

Though the visitors are favourites here, it’s important to note they’ll be playing without Péter Gulácsi, Lukas Klostermann, Konrad Laimer due to injury. On the flip side, the hosts will also be several players short – namely, Luca Philipp, Ermin Bičakčić, Benjamin Hübner, Ihlas Bebou, Fisnik Asllani have also reported injuries.

Though some punters may prefer more exciting options, the Under 3.5 Goals market is a solid opportunity for this fixture. It offers a surprisingly solid balance between risk and betting value – though the returns on their own aren’t much to look at.
