#WOBTSG: Home power versus set-piece strength

TSG Hoffenheim will be away to VfL Wolfsburg in the last 16 of the DFB-Pokal on Wednesday (18:00 CET / Live Ticker at tsg-hoffenheim.de). Wolfsburg are the favourites on paper thanks to their strong home and cup records, but the cup famously has its own laws. Here you will find all the important numbers, data and facts on the #WOBTSG match at a glance.

Did you know that…

…Wolfsburg are on an impressive home run against Hoffenheim?

…Hoffenheim have been clinical from corners in this cup campaign?

TSG have scored twice from corner-kicks in the current cup campaign – the two goals in their 2-1 victory against 1. FC Nürnberg. That is as many as they managed in the 13 previous cup ties combined.

…Wolfsburg have set a new record in the cup?

VfL have not conceded a goal in their last four home games in the DFB-Pokal – a club record. Their most recent home defeat in the cup was a 6-1 loss to Leipzig in October 2019.

…TSG are experiencing a long barren run against top-tier clubs in the cup?

Hoffenheim last managed to win away to a Bundesliga opponent in the DFB-Pokal in December 2013. Since then, TSG have failed to win nine of their 10 matches against top-tier clubs.
