Bayern Munich vs. Hoffenheim 10/23/21 Bundesliga Soccer Pick, Odds, and Prediction

Bayern Munich is welcoming Hoffenheim to Allianz Arena in round 9 of the German Bundesliga. Bayern can’t seem to stop scoring goals, and they have already scored 29 in Bundesliga this season. Hoffenheim is also scoring a lot, but their defense is worse than Bayern’s.

Bayern is at the top of Bundesliga with 19 points, and they are also at the top of their group in the Champions League with 9 points, and still without a conceded goal. Earlier this week in the Champions League, Bayern was playing against Benfica on the road, and they have had 65% of all possession, 7 shots on goal, 3 corner kicks, 5 big chances created, and 88% of the correct passes. It took Bayern a while to start, but once they did, they couldn’t stop. With 4 scored goals in the second half, Bayern has won this game 0-4. Lewandowski is the leading goalscorer for Bayern with 9 goals, while Gnabry added 5 goals, but I would like to mention Sane who is having a fantastic season and finally has an impact on this team. Bayern is a really dangerous team, they have a lot of depth, and their defense is stabilizing, which will make them even harder to beat.

Hoffenheim’s form is on the rise, not a big one, but a rise nonetheless. Hoffenheim has 2 wins in their last 3 games, and they have scored 9 goals during that streak. Thanks to their solid results as of late, Hoffenheim is now in 9^th place with 11 points, 17 scored goals, and 11 conceded goals, which isn’t bad at all. Hoffenheim was hosting Koln last weekend, and they were the better team with 51% of ball possession, 8 shots on goal, 3 corner kicks, 6 big chances created, and 78% of the correct passes. Hoffenheim scored almost every chance they created, and their defense got the job done as well. Hoffenheim has won this game 5-0. Baumgartner and Bruun Larsen have each cored 3 goals for Hoffenheim, while Kramaric added 6 assists. Now that the results are showing up, it’s time for Hoffenheim to work on consistency on both ends, and because they are playing only in Bundesliga, they will be rested for pretty much every game which is a huge plus for this team.

When these two teams meet, we usually see a lot of goals, and I think we will see even more in this game. Both teams are playing well, and Hoffenheim doesn’t have the quality to stop Bayern, but they could certainly get on the scoreboard. I’m taking goals.
