THE PREDICTION
Wolfsburg suffered their first defeat in 11 games in all competitions with a 2-0 loss at RB Leipzig in the DFB-Pokal in midweek, but that should not overly damage their confidence as the third-placed Wolves are still unbeaten in nine in the Bundesliga and have lost just two league games all season. They have also not conceded for 666 minutes. Hoffenheim are not in bad form themselves, taking five points from the last nine on offer and losing only to Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt in their last eight league matches. Nevertheless, they are still plagued by injuries and have yet to record back-to-back wins at home this season, so the visitors’ greater consistency and defensive solidity make them the team to back in this one.
