Prediction for the match: Köln - Hoffenheim

Analysis:

Upcoming match between teams Cologne (Köln) And Hoffenheim promises to be exciting. Statistics give a clear picture of the strengths, weaknesses and form of both teams.

Latest results Cologne raise concerns. In the last three Bundesliga matches the team did not win a single victory, and the only victory in the last five matches was won in the German Cup over the team "Osnabrück"in extra time. Draw 1:1 with "Eintracht F" suggests the situation has stabilized, however the low number of corners in this game (1) compared to the opponents (8) suggests that the team may have been more defensive or had difficulty creating opportunities. This is also evidenced by the goal difference - -2.

On the other side, Hoffenheim is in better shape. With two wins out of three in the Bundesliga, they showed a higher performance, scoring seven goals. But the team’s defense has thinned out somewhat, conceding five goals in these three matches.

As for the historical meetings between the teams, in the last match Cologne won with a score of 3:1, and before that the results were different, in particular in 2021 Hoffenheim won with a score of 5:0.

Speaking of goals, both teams have matches in which more than 1.5 goals are usually scored. However, if in matches Hoffenheim most often more than 2.5 (and sometimes 3.5) goals are scored, then the matches Cologne less effective.
