RB Leipzig will aim for another win following 1-3 Bundesliga success to beat Hoffenheim in their last outing.

Hoffenheim got 11 shots with three of them on target and a goal by Georginio Rutter (50′).
On the other sides, Freiburg managed to keep three clean sheets in their last five matches to sit in the second place with in the league with 27 points.
