Game Analysis

     

    • This will be the 12th Bundesliga meeting between Eintracht Frankfurt and 1899 Hoffenheim. TSG have the much better head-to-head record (W6, D3, L2).
    • Eintracht have just a six-point cushion over 17th place. Hoffenheim are currently two points adrift of sixth-placed Augsburg.
    • Frankfurt are without a win in six league games (D2, L4). The last time they claimed all three points was on matchday 25 courtesy of a 4-0 win over Paderborn.
    • However, the Eagles are unbeaten in their last nine home games (W5, D4) - their last defeat on home soil came on matchday 11, when they were beaten 4-0 by Bayern. The last time they had a home run like this was between February and November 2000 (15 games unbeaten).
    • Eintracht have failed to find the net in each of their four games since top scorer Alex Meier got injured. The last time they went longer without scoring was between February and March 2013 - a run of five matches back then.
    • Frankfurt have the league's leakiest defence. The Eagles have conceded 60 goals in 31 BL outings this term, an average of 1.9 goals shipped per game.
    • Hoffenheim have already let in 28 goals before the break - a league-high. They have even let in as many as 15 goals in the 15 minutes prior to half time alone - also a league-high.
    • The Eagles have already dropped 23 points from winning positions - a league-high. Their tally of five defeats suffered despite taking the lead is also the highest in the division.
    • TSG, on the other hand, rarely pick up points after going behind. Only HSV (1) have collected fewer points from losing positions than Hoffenheim (2).
    • Hoffenheim have failed to record back-to-back victories in the Bundesliga this season. The last time they managed to do so within a single campaign was in March 2014.
    • Pirmin Schwegler moved from Frankfurt to Hoffenheim in summer 2014. The Swiss midfielder made a total of 101 Bundesliga appearances for the Eagles (6 goals).
