“Soccer" TSG 1899 Hoffenheim

TSG 1899 Hoffenheim was founded in 1899 but the modern club was formed in 1945. This was a team that played in obscurity early on, doing stints in the 8th Division at the start of the 1990s. In 2000, former player Dietmar Hopp returned and gave the club financial backing. From playing in the 5th division in 2005, they were able to secure promotion to Bundesliga 1 in 2008. TSG 1899 Hoffenheim finished 9th in the league last season under Alfred Schreuder.

These are the player on the TSG 1899 Hoffenheim roster as of August 8, 2019:

1 GK Oliver Baumann, 2 DF Joshua Brenet, 3 DF Pavel Kaderabek, 4 DF Ermin Bicakcic, 5 DF Kostas Stafylidis, 6 MF Havard Nordtveit, 7 MF Lukas Rupp, 8 MF Dennis Geiger, 9 FW Ihlas Bebou, 11 MF Florian Grillitsch, 12 GK Philipp Pentke, 13 MF Leonardo Bittencourt, 16 MF Sebastian Rudy, 19 FW Ishak Belfodil, 20 MF Robert Zulj, 21 DF Benjamin Hubner, 22 MF Kevin Vogt, 23 FW Sargis Adamyan, 25 DF Kevin Akpoguma, 27 FW Andrej Kramaric, 28 Adam Szlalai, 29 FW Robert Skov, 30 FW Philipp Ochs, 31 DF Lucas Ribeiro, 32 MF Vincenzo Grifo, 33 GK Alexander Stolz, 38 DF Stefan Posch, 41 Alfons Amade, 42 MF Christoph Baumgartner

“Soccer" Who Wins?

Eintracht Frankfurt is the soccer betting favorite in this match but when you take a look at their head to head record, they have only taken three wins against 1899 Hoffenheim in their last 10 matches. Hoffenheim also has three wins against Eintracht while these team figured in a draw in four other meetings.

Eintracht Frankfurt got off on the wrong foot last year when they lost to Bayern Munich 0-5 in the Super Cup and were ousted in the first round of the DFB Cup as champions. But they were able to turn it around and have one of their best seasons in recent memory with a push to the UEFA Champions League qualification and a semi-final appearance at the Europa League.

Adi Hutter enters his second season as a coach with more experience but he will have to succeed without Luka Jovic and Sebastien Holler who left during the summer. The team has been competing since July, as they defeated Estonia’s Floara Tallinn 4-2 on aggregate in Europa League second-round qualifying.

Ante Rebic is now the top man for Eintracht. After helping Croatia in the 2018 FIFA World Cup, he returned to Eintracht with his best year since leaving Croatia in 2014. Rebic had 9 goals and 3 assists to prove his worth for the Eagles.

Eintracht head to this match with minutes in their legs already and they have shown good form early on. I’m picking Eintracht Frankfurt to defeat 1899 Hoffenheim on 8/18/19.
