After starting the year strongly on the road, Bayern Munich will start their home journey of 2025 with a game against Hoffenheim on Wednesday. The Bavarian club will look to make it three league wins in a row by beating the struggling Hoffenheim side.
Kompany’s team continued from where they left off before the winter break. The Bavarian club delivered a dominant performance against Borussia Monchengladbach on Saturday, but inefficiency in the final third made sure that it was a narrow 1-0 win. On any other day, Die Roten may have clinched a comfortable victory.
The Belgian coach will be pleased with the performance as he looks to build on a successful first half of the season. Bayern currently have a lead of four points over Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga title race. The tussle for Bundesliga Meisterschale is likely to go down the wire, so it is crucial for Bayern to get as many points when they are in between a good run of form.
Meanwhile, Hoffenheim have struggled for positive results in the Bundesliga. They are currently 15th in the points table, one point over the relegation zone. Hoffenheim started 2025 with a narrow 1-0 defeat against Wolfsburg. A positive result on Wednesday can certainly spark life into Hoffenheim’s campaign.
Considering the recent form and position of both sides in the table, Bayern are certainly favourites to win the game on Wednesday. Bayern enjoy a formidable record over Hoffenheim, winning 20 of their past 25 encounters.
However, stranger things have happened in the Bundesliga this season. Moreover, Hoffenheim had managed to inflict defeat on Die Roten when these two sides met in the final game of last season. Both teams have moved in different directions since the game in May, which suggests a comfortable win for Bayern could be on the cards on Wednesday.
Fans in the United States can watch the Bayern Munich vs Hoffenheim live stream on ESPN+. This Bundesliga match will be broadcast live in Germany on Sky Sports, while those in India can tune in on Sony LIV.
