TSG Hoffenheim will host Eintracht Frankfurt at the PreZero Arena on Sunday (15:30 CET/ live ticker on tsg-hoffenheim.de). While Hoffenheim are near the bottom of the table and desperately need points, Frankfurt are travelling with the wind in their sails and will be looking to build on their strong form. Here all the key facts and figures for #TSGSGE at a glance.
...games between Hoffenheim and Frankfurt are often high-scoring affairs?
In the past eight Bundesliga matches between TSG Hoffenheim and Eintracht Frankfurt, at least four goals have always been scored. Hoffenheim have lost all three of their last matches against Frankfurt by a scoreline of 3-1 and have only won one of the last six encounters (one draw, four defeats).
...TSG could finally end their negative streak?
With the 3-1 win in Kiel, Hoffenheim ended a run of nine games without a win (three draws, six defeats). In these nine games, TSG only scored a total of three goals - the same number as in the win against Kiel. Nevertheless, 17 points after 18 games is the worst record at this stage since 2015/16 (14 points).
...Frankfurt have made a historic start to the season?
With 36 points and 42 goals scored after 18 games, Eintracht are having the best Bundesliga season in their history and have also scored the most goals since 1981/82. The Hessians have also scored in their last 17 Bundesliga games and only failed to score on Matchday 1 (a 2-0 defeat in Dortmund).
...TSG are struggling at home?
Hoffenheim have lost their last two Bundesliga home games and have conceded at least one goal in their last 29 home games - the second-longest run in Bundesliga history. The last time they lost three home games in a row was from September to November 2023.
...Frankfurt are particularly strong away from home?
With five away wins this Bundesliga season, Frankfurt already have more victories away from home than in the entire previous season (four). Only once have they won more after playing nine away games: in 1964/65, the Hessians managed six road wins at this stage.
...Hoffenheim have problems after Europa League games?
Hoffenheim are without a win in Bundesliga games directly after Europa League games this season (four draws, two defeats). Frankfurt, on the other hand, have won three out of six Bundesliga games after playing in Europe, losing only once.
...Frankfurt's squad stands out through goal contributions and defensive stability?
Frankfurt have had 15 different goalscorers this season, making them joint league-leaders in this metric with Bayern Munich. Eintracht also excel defensively: goalkeeper Kevin Trapp equalled Peter Kunter's club record of 58 Bundesliga clean sheets after the recent 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund.
