Team of the hour set to visit Sinsheim

Did you know that…

…TSG have one of the best home records in the league?

Hoffenheim have lost only one of their last nine games on home soil at the PreZero Arena. During that timeframe, head coach Sebastian Hoeness and his players have won matches games in total – and their last three in a row.

…Leipzig have yet to really find their rhythm on the road?

Coach Jesse Marsch's side have not managed to win a single one of their last eight matches in the Bundesliga. This is the longest winless away run in Leipzig's top-flight history.

…RB are on a run against TSG, however?

Leipzig are now unbeaten in six Bundesliga matches against TSG, a run which has seen them win four times and draw twice. In addition, the Bulls have kept a clean sheet in each of their last three matches against TSG.

…Hoffenheim's defence should be especially wary of Christopher Nkunku?

The Frenchman has scored 11 competitive goals so far this season – as many as the club's top scorer last season (Yussuf Poulsen) managed in the entire campaign. The attacker has also notched four assists this term, taking his total number of goal involvements to 15.
