Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Hoffenheim and Holstein fans may have some reason for celebration ahead as their teams go head-to-head, with KickOff's prediction of both teams to score looking a far more convincing pick than any bet on the outright winner. The two clubs have goals in them, as is borne out by the statistics and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookies odds are not finding much to pick between the sides, as striking power and defensive options suggest each team is capable of both scoring and conceding. Both teams to score is the tip of the day here.
