Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there's no obvious winner here, but good reason to think Hoffenheim and Union Berlin will find the net twice at least between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Christian Ilzer or Steffen Baumgart has served up too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.25 equating to approximately a 80% probability.

Goal Statistics

TSG 1899 Hoffenheim's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because FC Union Berlin have conceded in each of their last 8 Bundesliga matches. A PG of 1.9 for C. Ilzer's side suggests that run should continue.

TSG 1899 Hoffenheim's defensive record is very strong, C. Ilzer's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive Bundesliga outings. An average PG rating of 1.1 for FC Union Berlin makes sense in this context.
