Hoffenheim vs Hamburg: Prediction for the Match on December 13, 2025
Hoffenheim enters this round as one of the Bundesliga’s most dependable home sides, sitting firmly in 5th position after a strong start to the season. Their attack has been sharp, their home form consistent, and their overall performances reflect a strong team. Hoffenheim enters this game on the back of a defeat to Dortmund in their most recent league game; there was no way they could have overpowered a star-strudded Dortmund team.
Hamburg, on the other hand, continues to blow hot and cold. They arrive in Sinsheim sitting in the lower half of the table, still building the rhythm needed to climb away from danger. Their dramatic 3–2 win over Werder Bremen last weekend brought some spark back into the squad, but their away form remains a major concern. Hamburg has won two of their last three meetings with Hoffenheim, and based on current form, the hosts are well-positioned to get the win this time around. Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.
Hoffenheim: Form and Statistics
Form in all competitions: LWDWW
Hoffenheim head into the weekend in strong shape, sitting comfortably in the top five after an impressive series of performances in the early stages of the Bundesliga. Their attack has been one of the most fluid in the league, averaging around two goals per game, and they remain dangerous at home, where they’ve put together three straight home league wins.
Their most recent game against Dortmund was a devastating one for the team; they fell by 2 goals to nil, putting an end to a six-match unbeaten run, but that loss hasn’t affected the overall confidence in Christian Llzer’s squad. Hoffenheim move the ball well, press high, and are a different team entirely when playing on their home turf.
Hoffenheim: Team News
Llzer is expected to stick with a familiar starting lineup. Key forward Tim Lemperle continues to lead the attack, supported by the creativity of Bazoumana Toure and Promel behind him.
Player to watch out for: Tim Lemperle
Lemperle has been one of Hoffenheim’s most dangerous players this season, delivering goals and consistently stretching defences with his movement. He has scored four league goals for Hoffenheim this season, only behind Fisnik Asllani by one goal.

Hamburg finally has something to build on following their breathless 3–2 victory over Werder Bremen in the Nordderby last weekend, a match that injected real belief back into the squad. That victory made it two consecutive league victories for Hamburg. Before the sensational 3-2 victory against Werder Bremen, Hamburg defeated Stuttgart by a 2-1 scoreline, with Alexander Rossing-Lelesiit sent off in the 81st minute. However, their season overall has been bad. They sit 13th in the Bundesliga and have struggled to produce consistent results.
Their away record remains a major concern. Hamburg has lost four of their last five Bundesliga matches on the road, conceding heavily and often struggling to control games away from home. Still, after such an emotional derby win last week, Hamburg will arrive in Sinsheim hoping to ride that momentum into a difficult fixture.
Hamburg: Team News
In-form attackers like Viera and Dompé remain crucial, while Sambi Lokonga is expected to continue as the creative spark in midfield.
