#TSGFCB: The coach with the Midas touch

All good things come in threes – and TSG Hoffenheim are set for their third meeting of the season with Bayern Munich on Saturday (15:30 CET/Live Ticker at achtzehn99.de), having already met once in the Bundesliga and once in the DFB Cup. TSG have especially good memories of the reverse fixture. achtzehn99.de has all the facts and statistics you need to know about #TSGFCB below.

Did you know that…

…Alfred Schreuder has the Midas touch when it comes to substitutions?

Lucas Ribeiro's goal to make it 1-1 away to Borussia Mönchengladbach was the eighth time a TSG substitute has scored this season. Substitutes have contributed eight assists too. With 16 in total, Hoffenheim have more substitute scorer points than any other club in the Bundesliga.

…Oliver Baumann has made the most saves in the Bundesliga since 2010?

The TSG shot-stopper was the match-winner against Borussia Mönchengladbach, saving 10 shots and keeping out a penalty. That takes his tally of saves made in the Bundesliga since the 2010/11 season to 1,131  significantly more than his closest challenger, Ron-Robert Zieler, who has saved 924 shots.

…TSG have a good recent record against Bayern Munich?

Hoffenheim have won three of their past six league matches against the Bavarians. Not bad considering there were no TSG wins in the first 17 meetings.

…Hoffenheim could make history?

If coach Alfred Schreuder's charges win on Saturday, TSG would become the first team since Borussia Dortmund in the 2011/12 season to win two league meetings with Bayern Munich in a single campaign. For Hoffenheim, that would be a Bundesliga first.
