On Saturday afternoon, Hoffenheim hosts Monchengladbach at the PreZero Arena as the home team looks to move clear of the Bundesliga relegation zone.
The home team are looking nervously over their shoulders at the Bundesliga’s bottom three, as they are just three points clear of the relegation play-off spot.

An awful recent run of form has led to their current perilous position in the table, as Andre Breitenreiter's team is winless in their previous seven matches in the Bundesliga, having suffered five defeats in their last six league matches.
A 2-2 home draw against Stuttgart last time out at least ended a four-game losing streak for Hoffenheim. However, the game saw Hoffenheim concede at least two goals for the fifth straight league match.
A poor recent run of home form has done Hoffenheim little favours, as they are now winless in six league games at the PreZero Arena, having suffered four defeats in the process.
Like their hosts, the Foals have been in poor league form of late, as they have lost three of their last four matches in the German top flight, including suffering defeats in their previous two outings. Last time out, the visitors suffered a 1-0 loss at Augsburg.
The recent poor run of league form has seen Monchengladbach fall nine points clear of the European spots in the Bundesliga. In fact, Daniel Farke’s team is now just six points clear of the relegation play-off spots.
Monchengladbach needs to improve on their travels of late in the German top flight, as they have failed to win in their previous ten matches away from home in the Bundesliga.
Forebet predicts that Hoffenheim will end their poor recent run of league form and record a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
