It’s difficult to assess Borussia Dortmund’s current season, as the team has been highly inconsistent. After 13 rounds, the Black and Yellows are in sixth place, trailing league leaders Bayern Munich by 12 points. However, at home, Nuri Sahin’s team has been outstanding.
In the previous Bundesliga matchday, Dortmund missed out on a win away to Borussia Mönchengladbach (1-1), conceding a late penalty. Before that, they had a home draw in Der Klassiker against Bayern and commanding 4-0 victory over Freiburg.
Midweek, Borussia Dortmund also played in the Champions League, where they twice came from behind against Barcelona but ultimately lost 3-2. With 12 points, Dortmund currently sits ninth in the tournament’s standings.
Hoffenheim remains stuck in a prolonged crisis. The “Blues” replaced head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo with former Sturm Graz manager Christian Ilzer, but this decision has brought no significant improvement.
With 13 points, Hoffenheim is in 14th place in the Bundesliga. Instead of competing for European spots, the team is focused on survival in the top tier of German football. In Ilzer’s debut match, Hoffenheim surprisingly defeated RB Leipzig 4-3, but this was followed by a 0-2 loss to Mainz and a 1-1 draw against Freiburg.
In the Europa League, Hoffenheim drew 0-0 against FCSB on Thursday, following a heavy 3-0 defeat to Braga. With six points, Hoffenheim sits 26th in the standings and risks missing out on the playoffs.
