St. Pauli vs Hoffenheim Prediction

St. Pauli Form

St. Pauli have had to endure a tough spell in their last three matches, from which they have nothing to show. They were beaten 2-0 by VfB Stuttgart, before Bayer Leverkusen ran out 1-2 winners. A third defeat on the trot followed against Werder Bremen, who came out 1-0 winners. St. Pauli claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Bundesliga, which also saw them drawing two and losing three matches, in which they scored seven and conceded ten goals.

Ambitions are high for St. Pauli, and winning the title is still possible, but they need to raise their level to achieve the highest prize.

Hoffenheim Form

Hoffenheim only managed to gain a single draw in their past three games. First, they suffered a 1-4 defeat against Bayern Munich. Then a 1-1 draw with Freiburg followed, before FC Koln claimed a 0-1 victory. Hoffenheim won twice, while also recording three draws, and one defeat in their last six away matches in the Bundesliga. The scoreline from these matches says 13 goals conceded and 15 scored.

Dreaming of the Bundesliga title, Hoffenheim are currently too far behind budget, so to speak, to seriously stake a claim at first place.

This particular encounter between St. Pauli and Hoffenheim looks a little trickier for the favourites, than prices with the bookmakers suggest. All things considered, though, we still believe, the home side has enough about them to pull off a win this coming Sunday.

St. Pauli took three points from their last two encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Bundesliga table. This amounts to one wins after scoring two times and conceding two. St. Pauli only drew once so far this season after six games played, in stead recording two wins and three defeats in the Bundesliga. Hoffenheim enjoy a record of two wins, one draw and three defeats in the Bundesliga.
