After being knocked out of the Champions League by Liverpool at the play-off stage, Hoffeneheim ended up in the Europa League. Two games in they find themselves bottom of the table after two defeats and desperately need to get a win here. This is their first season in European football but it's not going at all well. They began this group with a 2-1 home defeat by Braga in which they led and then they lost 2-1 to Ludogorets again after taking the lead. That's quite a pattern for the German side with two recent occurrences in the Bundesliga where they are currently fourth. Istanbul are third in the group with one point after a goalless draw with Ludogorets and a 2-1 loss to Braga conceding an 89th minute goal. They are also fourth in their league but have already lost two away league games. A difficult game to predict but Hoffenheim struggle to keep clean sheets while scoring on a regular basis, so go for both teams to score in this game.
