TSG Hoffenheim

SV Werder Bremen have taken 13 out of a possible 18 points in the first six games in the second half-season – only Bayer 04 Leverkusen have fared better in this timeframe. The fact Ole Werner’s team have only dropped points in their home games against promoted Heidenheim (2-1 loss) and Darmstadt (1-1) during this period has been something of a blow. More points would have put the club in a better position in the race to finish the campaign in the European places.

“Tim is a great defender with incredible potential. He has recently repeatedly attracted attention thanks to his strong performances for  the Regionalliga team, even though he could still be playing for the U19s, having only been born in 2005. Tim is not only catching the eye with his serene playing style, but also with his impressive speed,” said Pirmin Schwegler, head of professional football at TSG, about the defender born in Bruchsal, who was called up to the first team squad for the first time for the match in Dortmund last time out. “We now want to introduce Tim into the first team gradually and with the appropriate care. In the second half of this season, he will continue to collect match practice with the U23s that is indispensable at his age. However, at the same time, he will also regularly train with the first team – with the clear goal of fully integrating him into the Bundesliga squad by the summer at the latest.”

Due to the expected number of spectators at the stadium and the high volume of traffic, TSG Hoffenheim recommend travelling early and using public transport. Additional buses will be running to the PreZero Arena on Sunday. A shuttle service, which will run every 15 minutes, will take visitors from Sinsheim/Elsenz railway station (from the bus stop on the side facing the railway tracks) to the stadium (Sinsheim-Süd industrial estate, opposite AVR) and back again. A shuttle service has also been organised on various routes to take visitors directly to the stadium from towns in the surrounding area.
