Hoffenheim has managed just one victory in their last 10 outings. Meanwhile, Tottenham’s defense has shown cracks, conceding 5 goals across their previous two matches. Adding to Hoffenheim’s woes, the team has failed to secure a win in their last four home games. Interestingly, this will be the first-ever meeting between these two clubs.

Hoffenheim 

This season has been a disaster. If I were to express everything on my mind, I’d probably be suspended for a long time,” commented Hoffenheim star Andrej Kramarić after their heavy 0-5 defeat to Bayern Munich. His frustration is completely understandable, as Hoffenheim currently find themselves in 15th place in the Bundesliga, just three points clear of the relegation playoff zone.

Despite the overall struggles, coach Christian Ilzer, who took over mid-season, guided the team to an important 3-1 away victory over direct relegation rival Holstein Kiel in their most recent match. This win followed a tough stretch of defeats, including losses to Bayern Munich, Wolfsburg (0-1), and Borussia Mönchengladbach (1-2).

In the Europa League, Hoffenheim cannot afford to lose any more ground. They are currently in 26th place in the group stage, just one point shy of the playoff spots, with only two rounds left to play.

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham, much like Hoffenheim, are having a tough season. Ange Postecoglou’s squad is currently in 15th place in the Premier League, and rumors of the manager’s potential sacking are circulating. A string of injuries has compounded their struggles throughout the campaign.

In their last six Premier League fixtures, Spurs have managed just one point, with their most recent result being a 2-3 defeat away to Everton. Prior to that, they lost to Arsenal (1-2) and Newcastle (1-2) and drew with Wolverhampton (2-2). Despite these setbacks, Tottenham has managed to reach the semifinals of the English League Cup, having won the first leg against Liverpool 1-0.

In the Europa League, however, Spurs still have a strong chance to secure a spot in the top 8. With 11 points, they are currently 9th, tied with Rangers but trailing on goal difference.

Considering both teams' defensive struggles and ongoing injury issues, this clash has the potential to produce plenty of goals. My prediction: the total number of goals scored will exceed 3.
