Hoffenheim vs Stuttgart is one of the matches that will open the Bundesliga matchday 17 this coming Tuesday, January 24. Neither of these two teams were able to get a win in their first league game played in 2023 and that could be complicating them in the standings.
Hoffenheim is one of the teams with the worst form in the last five games, as they have not won a single match in that period. On the other hand, Stuttgart has two wins in the last five games, but continues to struggle in the relegation places.

Hoffenheim Preview
Hoffenheim resumed Bundesliga play with a 3-1 defeat against Union Berlin. This is their eighth loss of the season after 16 games, which means that they have lost half of their games, with five wins and three draws. In addition, this is their fourth defeat in a row, and they have now gone six games without a win in the German league.
These results have them placed 13th in the standings with 18 points, and only three units separate them from the relegation places. A home game could help them to vindicate themselves, but they have not won in their last five home games.
Probable lineup (3-4-1-2): Oliver Baumann; Kevin Akpoguma, Ozan Kabak, Stanley Nsoki; Robert Skov, Dennis Geiger, Angelo Stiller, José Angel Esmorís; Tom Bischof; Ihlas Bebou, Christoph Baumgartner.
Stuttgart Preview
Stuttgart drew 1-1 with Mainz last week and, although they salvaged a point, it cannot be considered a good thing as the team remains mired in the relegation positions with only 15 points from 16 games, with three wins, six draws and seven defeats.
They have not won in their last two Bundesliga matches, so possibly trying to get an away win is not promising. Considering that they have not won in their seven appearances on rival territory, they will have to leave everything on the field to take all the three points.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Florian Müller; Waldemar Anton, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Hiroki Ito, Nikolas Nrtey; Wataru Endo, Atakan Karazor, Naouirou Ahamada; Tiago Tomas, Serhou Guirassy, Silas Katompa.
JefeBet Prediction
Both Hoffenheim and Stuttgart are facing difficult situations this season, but it is the visiting team who have the most to lose in this match. Stuttgart is under relegation pressure and is also the third-worst away team of the season. It comes into this match with four consecutive defeats on rival soil, so Hoffenheim are expected to come away with the win.
Prediction: Hoffenheim win by a score of 2-1.
