At the end of last season, Hoffenheim finished seventh, and over the summer, the club made significant moves in the transfer market. All of this created the impression that the blue-and-whites would be competing for a spot in European competitions this season. However, the reality turned out to be quite different. Hoffenheim entered the new season with a lot of problems under coach Pellegrino Matarazzo.
In the first four rounds of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim collected only 3 points—a win over newcomers Holstein Kiel in the first match. After that, Hoffenheim suffered losses to Eintracht (1-3), Bayer (1-4), and Union Berlin (1-2).
Hoffenheim’s start in European competitions was also not very successful. The German team was outplayed in almost every aspect by Midtjylland, but an incredible goal by 18-year-old Morstedt saved them from defeat, ending 1-1.
Bremen had a very good season considering their squad’s potential and finished just a few goals shy of the European competition zone. However, Heidenheim edged out Werder on goal difference, leaving Ole Werner’s team in 9th place.
The start of this season has been relatively good for Werder. The team collected 5 points in the first four rounds, with draws against Augsburg (2-2) and Borussia Dortmund (0-0), as well as a 2-1 win over Mainz. However, last weekend, Werder suffered a harsh defeat, losing 1-5 to Bayern Munich.
