Wolfsburg and Hoffenheim are set to clash at the Volkswagen Arena this Sunday in an exciting Bundesliga contest, both teams eager to taste the sweet flavor of victory for the first time in 2024.

Wolfsburg, having only drawn once in the first half of their 16 top-tier fixtures of the domestic campaign, has become a team known for securing ties since returning from the winter break in 2024. They’ve managed to secure ties in each of their first three league games. Despite dominating on the field and having home advantage in their last match, Niko Kovac’s squad was unable to secure a win, resulting in a frustrating 1-1 draw against Koln, who are battling relegation. Currently in 11th place with a respectable 22 points, the Lower Saxony-based Wolves will be aiming to get back into their winning stride in the hope of enhancing their chances of securing a place on the European stage.

Both Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg have had a frustrating start to the new calendar year, failing to secure a victory in their first three league fixtures. However, Hoffenheim has suffered more in terms of results. They failed to gain any points in their first two games after the winter break, losing 0-3 to Bayern Munich and 2-3 to Freiburg. Their first point in 2024 came from a 1-1 draw with the competitive Heidenheim. This result extended Hoffenheim’s undesirable streak of five matches without a win, earning them only two points. This has hindered their chase for European places.

Wolfsburg vs Hoffenheim Betting Tips: BTTS

Determining a clear favorite is challenging in this match-up between two teams that are currently not in top form. Given that both teams have shown defensive instability, we predict a thrilling match with both sides scoring. Although Die Wolfe has shown the ability to take an early lead in recent games, their defensive weaknesses have cost them dearly, leading to lost points. They have managed to keep a clean sheet in only one of their last 13 Bundesliga rounds.

Fans of the Volkswagen Arena can look forward to another game where their favorite team scores easily. They’re playing against Hoffenheim, a team that has the third-worst defense record, having allowed 37 goals in 19 matches. Hoffenheim’s coach, Pellegrino Matarazzo, has been frustrated by his team’s inability to prevent opponents from scoring, with only one clean sheet in 19 Bundesliga games. This suggests that Hoffenheim’s defense is riddled with gaps, much like Swiss cheese. The last 15 head-to-head games between these teams have seen both teams score 14 times, with only Bayern Munich managing to stop Hoffenheim from scoring. So, we can expect a thrilling 90-minute match with goals from both teams at the Volkswagen Arena.

Wolfsburg team news

The pivotal center-back Maxence Lacroix is grappling with a groin injury, but he is expected to be in contention for the Sunday clash, including captain Maximilian Arnold, who returned to training after missing the 1-1 draw with Koln due to illness.

For the same reason as Max, 29-year-old midfielder Yannick Gerhardt sat out the last Bundesliga action, but he should be good to go for the match against Hoffenheim, while the striking duo of Patrick Wimmer and Lukas Nmecha remain sidelined due to injuries.
