THE PREDICTION
Two sides in very poor form are set to lock horns at SchücoArena. Whilst Arminia Bielefeld remain winless after four Bundesliga games, Hoffenheim come into this one on the back of successive defeats and just one point accrued across their last three league matches. Both will see this as a big opportunity to gain three points when taking into account the form of their opposition and are expected to deploy tactics that largely focused on attack rather than defence. This should lead to a contest full of goalscoring opportunities for each team and when taking into account that neither Arminia Bielefeld, nor Hoffenheim have kept clean sheets since the opening round of this season, backing both teams to score looks to be the smart play.
