About The Match
Both sides arrive winless in the Bundesliga, but the market prices Hoffenheim as the away favourite and the season numbers support that lean. M´gladbach have lost all five league matches and conceded 18 goals, while Hoffenheim at least have one win and a far less damaging goal difference. The key uncertainty is whether M´gladbach's strong home scoring, 3.0 goals per home match, can overcome a defence that concedes 4.0 per home match against a Hoffenheim side that has been leaky on the road.
