Hoffenheim have had a mixed run lately, with a couple of wins, a draw and two losses, so they've been up and down rather than flying. Elversberg are in worse shape right now, having lost their last two matches, though they did win two games before that little slump. Notably, the two teams have not met recently, so there's no history of high-scoring meetings between them to go on.

Both sides have looked shaky at times, which suggests this one could swing either way, and there isn't a strong sign that it will be a goal-fest. Overall, it looks like a close contest, and with Hoffenheim at home and Elversberg struggling a bit, the most likely outcome is a narrow Hoffenheim win, though a draw is very possible too.
