Hoffenheim came back from a goal down to earn a vital win at Berlin on the weekend. Both teams were in touching distance in the table, but Nagelsmann’s team has now gained a sizable lead in the race for Champions League qualification. Hoffenheim moved one place up to third in league, partially helped up Dortmund’s 1-1 draw at Schalke. And their cushion over Hertha on fifth spot is stretched to 8 points. With another 8 matches to go, they are perfectly poised to make their first ever entry to Champions League as even a fourth placed finish guarantee them a place in the qualification rounds.
Along with Bayern and Dortmund, Hoffenheim are unbeaten at home in the Bundesliga matches this season. The 13 matches are split between 8 wins and 5 draws with the most recent four beings wins. They scored 10 in the last four here and kept clean sheets in 3 of the last four.
Bayern Munich are in some excellent goal-scoring form now. They thrashed Augsburg 6-0 on Saturday to register their 7th consecutive win in competitive matches. The number of goals scored during the period is 29, with clean sheets in 6 of those. It seems like they are running away with the Bundesliga title once again. They have a lead of 7 points over second placed RB Leipzig, which could stay intact if points are dropped Sinsheim at on Tuesday night.
While playing away from home, Bayern are not as lethal as they were at the Allianz Arena. They did pick up an incredible 32 points from a possible 39. But the win by more than 2 goal margin occurred just once.

Hoffenheim vs Bayern Munich: Prediction
Julian Nagelsmann could not have wished for a better shape leading into his team’s biggest game of the season against the record Champions. And we should expect the Hoffenheim squad to be highly motivated including those in the bench. This is good for the neutrals as it creates a derby-like atmosphere.
Regarding the full-time result, I got the feeling that Hoffenheim are in for a major surprise. Bayern’s recent run could be emphatic, but you can’t do much to a team with a fearless attitude.
The two players, Sandro Wagner and Andrej Kramaric in excellent form for the home team. While Lewandowski is red hot for both club and country. Therefore, both teams to score look like a banker bet.
