Gent started the EL group stage this season with a defeat. Liberec took the three points to the Belgians with a score of 1-0 on the scoreboard. Buffalos will have three straight losses following a 1-2 loss at home to Genk in the Jupiler Pro League.

EL's 2-0 home win over Crvena Zvezda in the first round helped Hoffenheim bounce back in form after two consecutive defeats. The team will make the visit after a 1-1 away draw against Bremen in the last time on the German Bundesliga calendar.

Gent vs Hoffenheim Prediction

Defeat to Dynamo Kyiv in the Champions League put Gent in the Europa League this season. But the hosts have not changed their form outside the domestic league, as they started EL's campaign with a clean sheet.

With only one victory in the last seven meetings in the general calendar, the home team does not represent a big threat for the visitors in the next match. Furthermore, Hoffenheim must warm up with just three defeats in their last ten games in all major competitions on their calendar.

Hoffenheim are unbeaten in their last two games in good form and will visit after a group win at home to Crvena Zvezda. With good form along the way, Die Kraichgauer will be the favorites to have more of an impact on the game than the hosts.

Based on these stats, we can expect a slow mid game; probably under 3 goals in ninety minutes. Therefore, the under 3,5 goals tip is probably the best bet for punters. Furthermore, the advice for Hoffenheim to win one of the two halves of the game will also come in handy to generate decent returns.

Betting tips for Gent vs Hoffenheim

• Under 3,5 goals for 1,50 (1/2).
