Match Today: Borussia Dortmund vs Hoffenheim 02-09-2022 Bundesliga

Having had their second best start to their Bundesliga career, Hoffenheim have a chance of ending a four-game losing streak against Borussia Dortmund in the league match when they face them on Friday at Signal Iduna Park.

Both teams have nine points after four matches in the Bundesliga, as Dortmund won this exact match last season with a score of 3-2, after making the wrong history in the previous match at home, becoming the first team in the Bundesliga to conceded three goals since the 89th minute. Onwards we saw a Dortmund team with much more structure and organization at Hertha Berlin last weekend, and the 1-0 win, apart from a late collapse against Werder Bremen, a 3-2 loss, was a reasonably positive start to the new campaign for Eden Terzech and his team.

Their home defeat to Bremen was the first time since the 2014-15 season that Dortmund had lost points in at least one of their opening domestic matches at Signal Iduna Park, although they had not lost a win in the return leg, a league match since Losing the last two games played in North Rhine-Westphalia in 2020. Terzic was understandably pleased with his side's performance in possession last Saturday, although he stressed the importance of making matches out of reach when the opportunity presents itself, something they struggled for in the league The German this season in 2021-22.

They also achieved the double against a team for the first time ever, winning both games 3-2 after capturing just one of their previous seven matches against Team Hoffenheim.

Borussia Dortmund have had a tough time, conceding 11 goals against them since the start of the 2018-2019 season, while conceding only one goal from their previous four home games against Hoffenheim.

And Andre Breitenreiter started his coaching period positively at Hoffenheim, winning three of his four domestic first matches, the club's highest tally at this stage of the competition since 2010-11 (10 points).

No TSG coach has collected more points from the club's first four league games than his current coach, who led FC Zurich to the Swiss Super League title in 2022, its first domestic championship since 2008-2009.

The current series of victories in three matches for a team is the longest winning streak since it won four consecutive domestic matches between February and March last season. Hoffenheim scored a consecutive clean sheet in the league match for the first time since April 2021, as it received only one shot on the goal in winning 1- 0 at Augsburg last Saturday. A 3-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen in the third round ended Hoffenheim's five-game winning run in this competition, having outlasted them 16-4 during that slump.
