Hoffenheim – Tottenham betting tip, AI prediction & odds 23/01/2025

Europa League, Thursday, 01/23/2025 at 6:45 p.m.

Do the big names automatically qualify for the next round? I don’t think so! In our Europa League tips, some star teams are languishing far too far down the table, including a club that is now taking a seat in my Hoffenheim Tottenham tip.

The North Londoners are in a deep crisis in the Premier League, so it’s no wonder that this is also affecting their international competition. I don’t really want to favor the Spurs on Thursday, instead I’m going for the “Under 3.5 goals” bet.

Easy, that’s for sure, it’s not easy for anyone to pigeonhole Tottenham Hotspur. Now Hoffenheim is truly not a team that is bursting with self-confidence, in the Europa League they have only won once.

It is safe to say that there will be no self-confidence on the pitch in Kraichgau on Thursday. However, I still believe that TSG will put up a valiant fight, while I am not sure how well the game will be received by the guests.

Crisis on the left, crisis on the right, it’s a good thing that neither can lose! In my current analysis, I will try to substantiate my betting suggestion as well as possible and, of course, also examine how it can be that a team like Tottenham can be in such a crisis.

The bookmakers’ prediction

Hoffenheim have only won once in the Europa League so far, but at least that victory was at home. With Tottenham now coming in, it doesn’t surprise me to see TSG lagging behind with odds of 3.10.

On the other hand, it is by no means the case that our tax-free bookmakers are fully committed to Tottenham. Those betting on the English team to win are being offered odds of 2.20 due to the current crisis.

A draw would not benefit either side, but Hoffenheim would probably prefer to accept the point. Since 1899 already have three draws and Spurs have two, the odds of a draw are not particularly striking at 3.65.

Who does ChatGPT favor in this duel? This is of course not the right question for the AI, but as usual in the Europa League, I looked up which bets are suggested to you.

If you want a high-risk tip, you can go for the 2-1 outcome bet. Is a win for Hoffenheim realistic? Since Tottenham is in a terrible slump, you can definitely place this bet.

With the “Double Chance 1X” you are of course taking far less risk. In my opinion, this is by no means a bad tip, because the Spurs have not won in three European games and are only receiving ridicule for their performances in the Premier League.

The classic of the “both teams score” also makes it into the selection of AI bets. All I can say is: actually a safe bet! Both defenses are allowing a lot, there could even be two goals on both sides.

Analysis: Hoffenheim vs Tottenham

They are marking time, and in a big way! The mood in Hoffenheim is quite modest, nobody really dares to speak of an upward trend, to approach the next tasks euphorically.

Last weekend, the team was FINALLY able to win again in the Bundesliga, taking a 3-1 lead from Kiel. Nevertheless, the relegation battle continues in the domestic competition.

The team from Baden have only kept two clean sheets in their last ten matches, always conceding goals in their own stadium. This is an ideal transition to the international competition, because although not everything is going according to plan here either, they have already kept clean sheets at home.

After drawing 1-1 at Midtjylland, 1899 went on to beat Dynamo Kyiv 2-0 at home. They then lost 2-0 to Porto, followed by a 2-2 draw with Olympique Lyon. The results didn’t really add up.

Odds Analysis

In five of six games, Hoffenheim has not managed to score before half-time. Since Tottenham have at least gone into half-time without conceding four times, you can bet that TSG will not score in the first 45 minutes. The odds of 1.85 at Betano are always worthwhile.

Since both teams have already played out two 0-0 halftimes, this could be another option. The odds for a goalless draw for the time being are 3.65, whereas the pure draw remains at 2.35.

I can certainly imagine that TSG will score the first goal in this crisis duel. If the spark of the crowd jumps over, that could happen with the corresponding bet at odds of 2.07.

After the clear 0:3 against Braga, the most recent home game resulted in a somewhat disappointing 0:0 against FCSB. One win, three draws and two defeats – the record could certainly be better.

At least the tally from the PreZero Arena looks much better. With five goals scored, Hoffenheim are among the weakest teams in the competition, although four of them were scored at home.

The club can be quite satisfied with two goals conceded from three home games, especially considering that they are constantly conceding goals in the Bundesliga.

Hoffenheim vs. Tottenham: Will offense or defense decide the Game?

There is no advantage to be seen in the fact that it is now against a team from the island. All four duels against English clubs were lost, but so far Hoffenheim has only played against Liverpool and Manchester City.

At the same time, which is of course very pleasing to hear in Kraichgau, Tottenham have only managed to take the win in one of their last six duels against German clubs.

The visitors from the English capital will presumably not have a precise idea of the geographical location of Hoffenheim. It is the fate of big clubs that they regularly end up in small towns in the Europa League.

Out of London and into Sinsheim – maybe it will be a welcome change. Spurs are floundering in the Premier League and are getting closer and closer to the relegation battle!

You heard that right, they just lost 2-3 to Everton again at the weekend. They have lost seven of their last nine games, and have conceded two, three, four or even six goals on a regular basis.

Things are not going well in the Europa League either. After a promising start, at least in terms of results (3-0 against Qarabag, 2-1 against Ferencvaros and 1-0 against Alkmaar), the team is no longer winning.

Tottenham conceded three goals before half-time against Galatasaray, losing 2-3. The following 2-2 draw against AS Roma was just as unconvincing as the 1-1 draw against Glasgow Rangers.

The draw with Rangers, the defeat against Galatasaray, the narrow 2-1 win against Ferencvaros? No, the three away games were really not what you would expect from the north Londoners!

A few days ago, it is definitely worth mentioning, they played against Tamworth in the FA Cup. You don’t know them? You don’t have to, after all, it is a fifth division club. The result: 3-0 for Spurs, but only after extra time!

Hoffenheim – Tottenham betting tip

Is it easy to be a fan of 1899 Hoffenheim at the moment? Certainly not, but the supporters of Tottenham Hotspur don’t have it easy either! On Thursday, two clubs will face each other that are not exactly bursting with confidence.

The English club’s crisis may be a little more serious, but they are of a much higher quality – or at least they should be. They have not won in three Europa League games and have not covered themselves in glory, especially away from home.

Hoffenheim, with five goals certainly not an offensive team, finally won again in the Bundesliga, but is under pressure in the EL. So the bottom line for me is an insecure club playing against an EVEN more insecure club, which is why I’m betting:

More than three goals are not on the cards here!
