TSG’s first competitive match of the new season has been scheduled: Hoffenheim will be away to Regionalliga club Würzburger Kickers at 18:00 CEST on 16 August. Würzburg, who were coached by former TSG U23 boss Marco Wildersinn last season, narrowly missed out on promotion to the 3. Liga due to a 5-4 penalty shootout defeat to Hannover 96 II. Wildersinn, who will take over the reins at Stuttgarter Kickers next term, will be replaced in the dugout by Markus Zschiesche.
TSG were eliminated from the cup in the second round last season following a 1-0 defeat away to Borussia Dortmund.
