WHAT A SAVE!

Hoffenheim so close to levelling as a cross is flicked on to Adams. He heads goalwards, but Flekken - almost in slow motion - leaps to his left to bat clear. Rutter slams the rebound wide.

ABOVE EXPECTATION

The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
We really have seen some fabulous finishes today.

GOLDEN CHANCE!

Sallai hooks a ball into the danger zone for Höler. He's only about five yards out, but fails to make contact. A simple touch goalwards, and Freiburg would have been ahead!

FREIBURG HIT STRAIGHT BACK!

Hoffenheim forge ahead as Kramaric plays a brilliantly disguised pass to Stiller, who arrows into the bottom corner from inside the box. Freiburg go straight up the other end with Günter, who hits a daisycutter past Baumann from 18 yards.

WIDE!

Freiburg almost caught out following a throw-in. Dabbur plays in Baumgartner on the edge of the area, but he places his effort just wide of Flekken's left-hand post.

HOFFENHEIM EQUALISE!

It's out of nothing as Samassekou sprays a ball out wide left to Raum. He bends a pinpoint ball into the area, and Kramaric pokes it home. Game on!

DABBUR CONCERN

Dabbur goes down with nobody near him. He appears to twist a knee, but should be OK to continue.

TAME HEADER

Kaderabek sends a ball into the box for Kramaric, but his header lacks the power to trouble Flekken. Hoffenheim's record scorer has just four goals this so far this term - that's his lowest return in six full seasons at the club.

ENCOURAGING SIGNS

Positive start from Hoffenheim. They're not playing like a team that's winless in six.

OPENINGS

Hoffenheim carve out the first chances of the contest as Kramaric takes advantage of a mistake by Gulde. He could shoot, but elects to pass and Freiburg can clear. Moments later, Günter is on hand to stop a Raum cross finding Bebou on the penalty spot.

FREIBURG EYE TOP FOUR

Christian Streich's men could jump above Leipzig and into provisional fourth spot should they gain maximum points in this Matchday 32 encounter. DFB Cup finalists, Freiburg's only loss in their last 12 competitive fixtures was against champions Bayern.

BAUMANN HOPING FOR CENTURY

Ex-Freiburg goalkeeper Oliver Baumann has been stuck on 99 Bundesliga wins for the last six games. Can the Hoffenheim 'keeper bring up his century today? Victory would provide toady's hosts with a crucial three points as they look to stay in the race for a European place with three games to play.

SALLAI OUT FOR REVENGE

Here's Freiburg's Roland Sallai speaking ahead of today's game: "Hoffenheim are a really good side and have some great players. We won there 4-1 in the Pokal, but we conceded a late winner to them at home earlier this season. We want to take revenge for that and win the game."

FREIBURG TEAM NEWS

With club record scorer and super-sub supreme Petersen only fit enough for the bench, Streich shuffles his pack following the 3-3 with Borussia Mönchengladbach a week ago. Ex-Bayern winger Jeong Woo-yeong and Bosnia-Herzegovina striker Ermin Demirovic drop to the bench, with defender Manuel Gulde and forward Lucas Höler coming in.

HOFFENHEIM TEAM NEWS

Coach Hoeneß switches to a back four, with Pavel Kaderabek and David Raum the full-backs, while Christoph Baumgartner returns at the expense of Jacob Bruun Larsen. Chris Richards, Stefan Posch, Havard Nordtveidt and Florian Grillitsch are all out.
