Hello darkness my old friend.

 

[tommyt]

As much as style is important I'd take any sort of win right now.

 

[rabbikeane]

Difficult game this

 

[Pellshek]

We'll be fine - they're only 15th in the Bundesliga lol.

 

[BorjeSpurs]

I'm fully prepared for a Gift Orban goal (which would be his first for Hoffenheim) tomorrow.

 

[sidford]

Do we have to

 

[GioW]

The unbeaten run starts here right lads?!?!


Lads?

 

[BuryMeInEngland]

Is Hoffenheim a draft or bottled beer?

Fun statistics about tomorrow's match

If we win: 1- We secure 8th if everyone above us won, and united wins against Rangers (or rangers wins and keeps the GD above us), and we get 3rd if everyone above us won.
2- We secure the playoffs no matter the Brodo game.

If we draw:

1- Worst case scenario we drop to 17th (Yes i calculated it)
2-Best case scenario everyone below us loses, rangers lose, we get 8th

If we lose:

1- Worst case we drop to 22nd!!!!
2- Best case we drop to 11th, with a small chance to go straight into RO16 instead of playoffs

EDIT: As worcestersauce points out below, these are wrong - we need 2 wins to guarantee qualification without a playoff.

They won their last, but are 1-3-6 on last 10. Battle of the worst?

 

[Goobers]

I'll be fucking terrified just before kick off.

Nah pretty sure that's not correct.
If win we will go 8th but it ain't secured as there's half a dozen teams who can overtake our 14 points if we don't get anything in the last game.
I reckon they're working on the basis this is the last game.

It'll be interesting to see who's in the squad. No Kinsky, Spence, Reguilon or Yang on top of all the injuries.

Looking at it in more detail, I think you're right - we can't qualify tomorrow, but a win does guarantee us a playoff place. It does need to be 2 wins to guarantee it (because one of Rangers and United will drop points, as they say).

Bummer, I was thinking we had some actual good news and might be able to get away with resting players next week with a result tomorrow.

Dangerous to claim good news before the game anyway!!

I'm fully prepared for a Gift Orban goal (which would be his first for Hoffenheim) tomorrow.

I said the same earlier but he's cup tied thank feck.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Keep an eye out for Tom Bischof playing in the heart of Hoffenheim's midfield. Everything good they do usually goes through him. Monumentally talented young man who already has pre agreement to join Bayern at the end of the season. Big future ahead of the lad.

 

[carpediem991]

On my way to Hoffenheim. Have my football boots with me if they need someone to fill the bench.

Hope you put some money on that! along with Kinsky clean sheet
