THE PREDICTION
Hoffenheim have only won one of their six Bundesliga games after a midweek Europa League outing this season and Sebastian Hoeness’ squad is stretched following Thursday’s trip to Molde. Seven players are definitely ruled out, while top scorer Andrej Kramaric is among those who are doubtful. Werder Bremen are relatively fresh in comparison since they have played just twice so far in February and have few major injury worries, so it could be a good time for them to visit Sinsheim. The Green-and-Whites have only lost one of their last six league games and can certainly get something here, but bearing in mind they have drawn their last two, Double Chance may be the best option.
