THE PREDICTION
1899 Hoffenheim decided to sack manager, Andre Breitenreiter, after last weekend’s 5-2 defeat to fellow strugglers Bochum. The home team are now under the management of former Stuttgart boss Pellegrino Matarazzo. Their performances have been relatively impressive this season and they should be pushing towards the European spots, especially given their squad. Their 19 matches have consisted of 64 goals. They now face a Bayer Leverkusen side that, under the management of Xabi Alonso, have gradually improved and are now beginning to show real signs of an impressive and intense style of football. The visitors have suffered back-to-back defeats recently, though. Both teams scoring looks a good bet for this one.
