In the Bundesliga, Nagelsmann’s men have been excellent, romping to consecutive home victories in which they have kept clean sheets. Even reigning German champions Bayern Munich suffered a 2-0 loss at their hands last weekend.
Our 1899 Hoffenheim vs Sporting Braga predictions are based off the fact that the latter will find it hard to travel in the Europa League, which makes the week’s football odds very tempting. Betway offer good value of 5/4 on the hosts to Win to Nil.
This is the first time that Hoffenheim have ever played in a full European competition, with the sense of occasion and excitement bound to galvanise them and ensure that the first European night in Sinsheim is one to remember.
Mark Uth scored twice last time out against Bayern, and will therefore be confident that he can continue his promising form with another good showing against Braga during the week.
Hoffenheim vs Sporting Braga Prediction and Betting Advice
After starting with a back five against Bayern, Nagelsmann showed that he is prepared to change his tactics depending on who his team are set to face, but they should be playing on their own terms much more on Thursday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have suffered consecutive defeats in their last two Portuguese league fixtures. Porto and Vitoria Setubal have been capable of picking up the respective three points, with Braga unable to even hit the back of the net during either game.
One win in their last seven European fixtures suggest that Braga do not travel well on a big stage. They last kept a Europa League clean sheet all the way back in 2015 against Groningen. Their form has tailed off fairly badly in 2017.
Our 1899 Hoffenheim vs Sporting Braga picks suggest that Nagelsmann’s side should be looking to take full advantage of their home fixture and start their inaugural Europa League campaign off with three points in the group stages, while keeping it tight at the other end.
