Given their precarious situation the final thing Hoffenheim require is an encounter with runaway Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich. A couple-1 defeat to Augsburg last weekend saw the club slump to second through the bottom on the table, a job which once they don't improve, would see their five-year spell inside Bundesliga ended in May.
Bayern, meanwhile, have showed a 17-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga, and also a midweek conquer Borussia Dortmund from the DFB-Pokal confirmed their dominance of German football this holiday season. Yet notwithstanding a 44-point difference between the 2 sides, Hoffenheim might be aiming for victory tomorrow.
``Maybe it may help that there is no pressure for the team to win mafia wars,'' boss Marco Kurz said. ``I expect a team who will not be able to play technically and Bayern, but with the desire and determination against these overwhelming opponents.''
Bayern might just have fun with a weakened side because of the Dortmund game, and an approaching Champions League tie with Arsenal. Nevertheless, even their reserve players have shown often enough this season them to would go with any starting XI from the league. Claudio Pizarro and Rafinha are unlikely for being involved for Bayern due to flu, but former Hoffenheim goalkeeper Tom Starke could start.
``We do not use a B-team at Bayern,'' said Heynckes. ``We nine internationals about the field against Bremen and i am sure other clubs would bite your hand off and away to have that.
May well also be disrespectful to jot down off Hoffenheim's chances, reported by Heynckes.
