After nearly getting the boot in the German football’s top tier flight back in 2013, TSG Hoffenheim have started finishing their campaigns in the Bundesliga in better form – with a 9th place finish back in 2014, followed by their strong conclusion to their title bid last season in the 8th spot. Yes, the Die Kraichgauer have, slowly but surely, shown that they can pose a serious challenge to the more established clubs of the league again as they look to capture what would be their first ever trophy in the premier stage. Of course, not many pundits are convinced that these guys are indeed ready to go toe-to-toe with the biggest football teams from this side of the world, especially after dropping their season opener 2-1 against Bayer Leverkusen. And in case you haven’t figured it out yet, it appears that this Hoffenheim outfit have a lot to prove once the brand new 2015-16 title chase heats up.
Despite the fact that TSG Hoffenheim have probably earned the right to be dubbed as one of the better teams in German football today, they have yet to win the championship that matters in the top tier level, with only a runners-up finish in 2.Bundesliga their biggest achievement to date. I won’t be surprised if this club starts playing every single fixture that they have as if it is their last, as they look to prove their naysayers wrong and finally get their hands on the elusive trophy at the end of the current campaign. Fortunately for these guys, they won’t have to wait that much longer as the defending German Bundesliga champions themselves, FC Bayern München, will make the trip to the Wirsol Rhein Neckar Arena to see just how good this Hoffenheim team have really become. And if they want to earn the respect of the rest of the league and convince people that they can be legitimate contenders for the title, a win over the reigning kings of the league for the past three years just might give these guys the credibility that they are going for.
TSG Hoffenheim, listed by SBOBET.com with the best football odds of *9.50 to beat FC Bayern München, come into what should be their first big test of the young 2015-16 German Bundesliga campaign looking to kick off their home stand this season on the right track – with a win over the mighty Bayern club – and give their loyal fans with something to look forward to for the rest of the football year. And although they really don’t have the championship pedigree of the Munich outfit yet, this TSG club will be banking on the experience of their top players to help them get there, especially after signing German footballer Kevin Kurányi to a one year deal, bringing the talented veteran striker back to the Bundesliga.
Yes, that’s right, after spending five years in Russia playing for Dynamo Moscow in the premier flight of Russian football, Kurányi returns to the German Bundesliga where he made a name for himself after some impressive stints with German sides VfB Stuttgart and Schalke. TSG will be hoping that Kurányi can have a repeat of that success in Hoffenheim as they make a run for the championship.
”After five years in Russia, I’m highly motivated to prove myself once again in the Bundesliga, the 33-year-old Kurányi said in an interview for the official Hoffenheim website. ”TSG are a club with a great structure and huge prospects and I want to help us meet them.”
The only problem is, they have Bayern München for their first outing at home – a Bayern club that kicked off the defence of their Bundesliga title in style with a dominant 5-0 victory over Hamburger SV to come out of the gates strong in front of their fans at the Allianz Arena. Listed by SBOBET.com with the best football odds of *1.29 to beat TSG Hoffenheim, these boys from Munich are definitely looking pretty good to have a solid start to the season after the way they dismantled the Red Shorts to oblivion. And against TSG, I don’t think they will be slowing down just yet.
With new signees Douglas Costa and Arturo Vidal, this Bayern team seem destined to win their fourth consecutive German Bundesliga title, especially after the way Costa wasted no time in getting himself acquainted with his new teammates – connecting with club mainstay Thomas Muller for a goal before coming up with his own in the 87th minute to wrap up what turned out to be a sheer display of football brilliance in Munich.
Following their disappointing run in the UEFA Champions League, it seems that the rest of Bayern München are more than ready to put that behind them by coming up with another fantastic run for the Bundesliga title and unfortunately for TSG Hoffenheim, they are standing on Bayern’s way.
