We said: Heidenheim 0-2 Hoffenheim

Heidenheim are clearly a spirited outfit and they will carry plenty of excitement during the club's debut campaign in the Bundesliga, but scoring goals could become a major problem for them at this level. Despite losing to Freiburg on the opening day, Hoffenheim have recruited smartly during the transfer window and they improved under Matarazzo's tutelage towards the end of last season. We can envisage them collecting all three points on Saturday. Read more.
