Wolfsburg vs Hoffenheim Prediction and Betting Tips | November 2nd 2025

Wolfsburg and Hoffenheim bring round nine of the German Bundesliga to an end when they lock horns at the Volkswagen Arena on Sunday. Both sides were dumped out of the DFB Pokal in midweek and will be looking to pick up a morale-boosting result.

Wolfsburg were guilty of a lack of cutting edge in the final third on Tuesday when they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Holstein Kiel in the DFB Pokal second round.

Before that, Paul Simonis’ men held on to see out a 1-0 victory over Hamburger in the Bundesliga on October 25, a result which saw their six-game winless run in the league (2D 4L) come to an end.

Wolfsburg have picked up eight points from their eight league matches so far to sit 12th in the standings, level on points with 13th-placed Hamburger.

Like the hosts, Hoffenheim suffered a disappointing second-round exit from the DFB Pokal on Tuesday when they were beaten on penalties by St. Pauli after a 2-2 draw in normal time.

Christian Ilzer’s men return to action in the Bundesliga, where they snapped their three-game winless run with a 3-0 victory over St. Pauli on October 19, one week before seeing off Heidenheim 3-1 on home turf.

Hoffenheim have won four of their eight league games so far while losing three and claiming one draw to collect 13 points and sit seventh in the standings.
