It was a memorable campaign in the DFB Pokal last term for RB Leipzig, as they claimed a first piece of major silverware. However, their aim this term will be to successfully defend their title. In the round of 16 this week, they will come up against Hoffenheim at Red Bull Arena.

DFB Pokal Preview 

The DFB Pokal has been a solid competition for Leipzig in recent years, as they have reached the final of the tournament in three of the previous four seasons. However, they finally landed the top prize for the first time in their history last season, as they claimed victory in the final. That winning feeling could continue in the competition this term.

The German side had few issues in the previous round of the competition, as they claimed a comfortable 4-0 home win over Hamburg. Yussuf Poulsen was the standout star on that evening, as he scored twice in the opening half. Further goals in the second period were added by Mohamed Simakan and Benjamin Henrichs. Their recent form is also strong, as they have won four of their last five games. 

Hoffenheim is yet to win the DFB Pokal, but there could be hope that they could change that record this term. However, if they are to achieve that, then they will need to put some extremely concerning form in the league behind them. The German side has lost four of their previous six games, and they are sitting just three points above the relegation places in the Bundesliga at present. 

However, one of their best performances this season came in the DFB Pokal, as they landed a fine 5-1 home win over Schalke in the previous round. Mu’nas Dabbur scored twice in the opening half of that fixture, with other goals in the win being scored by Angelino, Ozan Kabak, and Pavel Kadelabek. 

RB Leipzig vs Hoffenheim Head to Head

Leipzig has picked up victories in each of the previous two meetings between these sides, scoring three times in both. Hoffenheim’s only win over their hosts this week was scored in November 2021, but that remains their only success in the previous nine. 

RB Leipzig vs Hoffenheim Prediction 

It looks hard to bet against Leipzig reaching the next round of the DFB Pokal this week. They have an excellent record in this competition, and their recent form points to the fact that they should win comfortably at Red Bull Arena.
