#TSGSGE: A landmark match with good omens

Did you know that…

…Hoffenheim have recently fared well at home to Eintracht?

For the first time in their Bundesliga history, TSG have recently won two consecutive home games against Frankfurt – the three previous matches had all ended in victory for SGE.

…Frankfurt currently have the worst challenge win rate in the league?

Eintracht have so far won only 45.6% of their challenges and are therefore in 18th place in the Bundesliga. TSG are slightly better with a tackle win rate of 47.2%, but are still in 17th place.

…both teams have seen plenty of cards?

TSG's players have already received 21 bookings this season – the most in the division, while Frankfurt have had two red cards and are currently joint-top of this ranking along with 1. FC Union Berlin.

…TSG are on a record-setting path?

The tally of 15 points from the first seven Bundesliga games represents the best start to the season in the club's history. TSG picked up five wins in the entire first half of last season, a number that they have already reached this term.

…Eintracht are extremely strong defensively?

With only five goals conceded, Frankfurt currently have the Bundesliga's best defence this season – the last time SGE had conceded so few goals after seven Bundesliga matches was 30 years ago.

…Frankfurt are struggling to hit their stride away?

Frankfurt are winless in 14 Bundesliga away games since November 2022 (seven draws and seven defeats). The Hesse outfit have been waiting even longer for an away game with a clean sheet – they have not managed this in any of their last 23 matches on the road.

…Marius Bülter likes scoring late goals?

Since the start of last season, Marius Bülter has scored four Bundesliga goals in or after the 90th minute of the match – more than any other player in this time (three for Schalke 04, one for TSG Hoffenheim).
