Hoffenheim vs Bayern Munich prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-09-19 13:30.
[p]Reigning Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich are the only side in the Bundesliga to have won their opening three games, and they put that record on the line against Hoffenheim. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Hoffenheim themselves have made a positive start to the campaign (W2, L1), beating Union Berlin 4-2 last weekend to secure their joint-best three-game start to a Bundesliga season since 2017/18. Die Kraichgauer’s only defeat so far this season came at home when they went down 3-1 against Eintracht Frankfurt, and home form remains an issue for Hoffenheim, who have only won one of their last 12 Bundesliga home matches (D5, L6). That run includes three straight defeats, and one more would equal a negative club record set back in November 2022. [/p]
[p]Not only are Bayern purring domestically, but they began their UEFA Champions League campaign in strong fashion on Wednesday by defeating Chelsea 3-1. Vincent Kompany may be slightly disappointed that his side have kept only two clean sheets in their last ten matches, but having netted 22 goals in just six games this term, they’ve shown they have more than enough firepower to overcome those defensive wobbles. They’re adept at overcoming obstacles on the road too, with Bayern unbeaten in their last ten away league games (W7, D3) – the longest such streak since the 2019/20 season.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Hoffenheim’s current home losing run includes a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Bayern in May – one of six defeats that they have suffered in the last nine H2Hs at any venue (W1, D2). [/p]
