Borussia Dortmund Aim for Seventh Straight Win Over Hoffenheim in Bundesliga Clash

Borussia Dortmund will be looking to extend their winning streak over Hoffenheim to seven matches when they host the visitors at Signal Iduna Park on Sunday afternoon. Die Schwarzgelben are currently fourth in the Bundesliga standings, while Hoffenheim languishes in ninth, making this a crucial encounter for both sides.

Dortmund on a Roll:

  • Unbeaten in ten games across all competitions.
  • Drawn two of their last three league matches.
  • Boasting a strong home record, losing just once in their last ten Bundesliga matches at Signal Iduna Park.
  • Niclas Fullkrug in red-hot form, scoring six goals in his last five league appearances.

Hoffenheim Struggling:

  • Winless in eight consecutive Bundesliga matches.
  • Lost four and drew one of their last five away fixtures in the league, conceding two or more goals in each.
  • Currently nine points adrift of the European qualification zone.

Head-to-Head:

  • Dortmund have dominated this matchup in recent years, winning the last six meetings between the two sides.
  • Die Schwarzgelben won both encounters this season, including a 1-0 victory in the DFB Pokal.
  • Three of the previous four H2H matches ended with a 1-0 scoreline, all in Dortmund’s favour.

Prediction:

Based on current form and historical meetings, Dortmund are heavily favoured to win. However, Hoffenheim’s recent scoring record suggests they could find the net.
