On upcoming Sunday
VfL Wolfsburg hosts
1899 Hoffenheim in the
29th round of Germans Bundesliga. Both clubs could not fulfil the high expectations in this season. Champion Wolfsburg faces rank 9, Hoffenheim is six points behind on rank 11.
Last year champions VfL Wolfsburg stands at the moment on table rank 9 and so they could not defend their title. But their form becomes stronger and stronger since Lorenz-Günther Köstner managed the team. VfL Wolfsburg have won five of their last six league games, the only defeat was two weeks ago in the home match against Hertha BSC (1:5). Wolfsburg have won five of their 14 home games in this season (5-2-7) and so they collected more points in away games (23 points) than at home (17).
After the first season leg 1899 Hoffenheim was on rank 7 and therewith involved in the match to qualify for the next UEFA Europa League. But meanwhile they are fallen back on rank 11 with already 14 points deficit to fifth-placed team SV Werder Bremen. 1899 Hoffenheim have won just two of their 11 league games in spring season (2-3-6). So they are the third weakest team in the spring season so far. Manager Ralf Rangnick will have to pass on some important players: Demba Ba, Vorsah (both injured), Conrad, Jaissle (both rehabilitation training) and Simunic (susp./10th yellow card).
