We're taking Hoffenheim to cover on the road against FC Koln on Saturday over in the German Bundesliga.

Rapid Breakdown

• Red-hot Hoffenheim take on struggling FC Koln this weekend in a game that many observers feel the home side need to get a positive result in after a less than ideal start. While that may be the intention here, FC Koln's lack of goal-scoring threat leads us to believe that they may have a really hard time in delivering that win against a Hoffenheim team scoring for fun right now.
• Hoffenheim have scored three goals in each of their last two Bundesliga games, along with putting another three past Swiss side Luzern in a club friendly last week. Hoffenheim are also averaging the Bundesliga's 4th highest offensive xG rating away from home this season, only being edged out by heavyweights Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich, and Freiburg in that department.
• FC Koln meanhwile own the league's 5th worst offensive xG rating this year, with only one team putting up fewer shots on target per game than Koln currently are. While Hoffenheim are a long way from being the best defensive team in the league, it'll nonetheless be difficult for Koln to suddenly switch it on here after mis-firing in front of goal so frequently this season.
