Borussia Dortmund - 1899 Hoffenheim

This is the last home match for Borussia Dortmund this season, stadium should be sold out as always and many oft hem expect a win against relegation candidate Hoffenheim. Of course Dortmund plays for nothing and have their heads more on the Champions League Final one week later. Nevertheless will Coach Klopp field his best available lineup as they want to get some rhythm for the Final. Also they do not want to lose the last home match at home above all at their great crowd. Also they do not want to continue their relaxed attitude from the last match against Wolfsburg where they got only a draw after they were 1-3 down. For this all must get back to their normal level and should be as focused as they can. Not in the squad is midfielder Götze, as he is not ready yet. He works on his comeback and should be in training with the team next week and therefore ready for the big match against Bayern Munich on 25.05. at Wembley.

This is the absolultely last chance for 1899 Hoffenheim to avoid relegation. This can be only if they win their match and one of the teams above Augsburg or Düsseldorf fail totally. Therefore they have to invest all and go for the win but it can be a much too high step for them. If they go all in they have to open a lot and this can be the decider because Dortmund with their players use this space and score. According to this situation they have to hold as much as they can and maybe find the right balance between offensive and defensive or they go only for defensive and try for the late punch. Many options are available for them, nevertheless how the match is, they have to win, nothing more and nothing else. With which lineup Coach Gisdol wants to make the wonder it is not out yet. It depends all on the tactic he wants to use. Maybe some home for them because in 4 matches Borussia Dortmund could only win one but on the other side they got 3 draws but they need the win. 

Overall a good game to go for it in running, above all for goals. But all depends on the result but I am very keen that we can catch some. At the moment I think the line is a bit to high to get involved but as I said, in play is good enough. If Dortmund take the lead, Hoffenheim must open more and more, on the other side if Hoffenheim take the lead I never doubt that Dortmund does not want to fight back for their fans at least. For me an interesting one.
