Best Tip: Hoffenheim to win

This is a fixture that really only looks like going one way and, unfortunately for the home team, that way is Hoffenheim's. We predict Thursday's visitors to Pankritio Stadio will have too much for their hosts, and it's a view backed up by each side's respective recent form stats, head-to-head (H2H) records and the odds from bookmakers too. They make an away win in the win / draw / win market the most likely outcome, and are willing to give a best price of 1.44.
