Hoffenheim vs Holstein Kiel Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga
by Kennedy Kechula in Bundesliga Predictions
Buoyed by their performance in the second tier, Holstein Kiel are eyeing a win in their first ever Bundesliga game. They will start off with an away match at Hoffenheim on Saturday. If you are looking to bet on this match, we have a prediction at the end of this preview.
Hoffenheim survived a scare against Regionalliga side Würzburger Kickers in the DFB Pokal, needing penalties to win after a 2-2 draw. They will look to do better, having come from behind twice in that match.
A run of three wins in their closing five league games last season is a place to start from in seeking motivation for this clash. Hoffenheim scored 17 times in those five matches, losing once.
This will mark their second meeting with Holstein Kiel in history. Their first was also goal-laden as Hoffenheim won the German Cup game 5-1 in 2021.
Holstein Kiel didn’t have a great preseason. That didn’t matter much as they started their competitive season with a 3-2 away win at Alemannia Aachen in the German Cup. The challenge gets tougher as they make their Bundesliga debut.
Holstein Kiel finished second in Bundesliga 2 last season just a point behind winners St. Pauli. They aren’t tipped for a top finish in the highest league but the visitors can afford to dream, inspired by Heidenheim’s performance last season.
Their manager Marcel Rapp will have an idea of the challenge ahead, having served at Hoffenheim’s youth teams before. The one strength that could define Holstein Kiel’s league opener is their ability in attack. They scored in each of their last 25 matches.
