#BVBTSG: good memories of trips to Dortmund

An away trip to play BVB no doubt rekindles memories of classic matches for TSG fans: the last-minute relegation escape in 2013, the magnificent comeback from three goals down to draw 3-3 in 2019 and the spectacular 4-0 win last season to secure qualification for the UEFA Europa League. Will this away game also live long in the memory? Here we bring you the most important facts and figures ahead of the trip to Dortmund (Saturday, 15:30 CET, liveticker at tsg-hoffenheim.de).

Did you know that...

…TSG are a real bogey team for Dortmund?

Since promotion to the Bundesliga 2008, Hoffenheim have picked up a total of 30 points in games against BVB. Bayern Munich are the only team to pick up more points against the Black & Yellows in this timeframe (46). The Bavarians are also the only team to better TSG's goal tally of 37 (Bayern have scored 54). 

…BVB have already hit the woodwork 14 times this season?

No other team in the Bundesliga have been denied by the bar or the post more often this season. For example, TSG have hit the woodwork just four times. 

…Andrej Kramarić has scored more Bundesliga goals against Borussia Dortmund than any other club (seven goals, equal to his tally against Hertha Berlin)?

What is more, the Croatian wrote his place in the history books with a four-goal haul in the 4-0 win in June 2020. It was the first time Kramarić had scored four goals in a game, while he became the first player in Bundesliga history to achieve this feat in Dortmund. 

…Hoffenheim have lost just one of their last four games against BVB? 

TSG were defeated 1-0 earlier in the season. However, Hoffenheim fans can take heart from the fact that TSG have yet to lose both fixtures against the same club this campaign. 

…Borussia Dortmund are particularly dangerous in the second half? 

The Black & Yellows have scored 31 of their 39 goals after the interval - more than any other team in the league. Of the two teams, TSG are the more dangerous in the first half, having scored 12 goals to BVB's eight.
