#SGETSG: Stop the negative run in Frankfurt with Kramarić

Did you know that…

Frankfurt have recently been a bogey team?

Eintracht Frankfurt have won nine of their 12 Bundesliga matches against TSG Hoffenheim since the 2018/19 season – Frankfurt have not won more often against any other opponent since 2018. In addition, TSG have not won on any of their last eight visits to Frankfurt; it is TSG’s longest ongoing away winless streak against a Bundesliga club.

…TSG can build on their good start?

Hoffenheim have won their opening game of the Bundesliga season for the first time in three years. TSG have only kicked off a Bundesliga season with two wins once in the course of the last 13 years – in the 2020/21 campaign.

…the form book since last season is in TSG’s favour?

Frankfurt have won only one of their last 10 Bundesliga matches and are winless in five matches in the league. TSG, meanwhile, have won their last three Bundesliga matches – a feat only champions Bayer 04 Leverkusen have achieved.

… Andrej Kramarić is in top form?

TSG’s record goalscorer has carried over his outstanding form from the closing stages of last season and scored three goals in the season opener. The Croat has always been involved in at least one goal in his last eight Bundesliga appearances – he has amassed 10 goals and five assists in this time.

…the Croat could equal a record?

Only 10 players in the Bundesliga have managed to score at least three goals in two consecutive appearances – Andrej Kramarić is the first player to do it twice. In Bundesliga history, no player has ever scored at least three times in three matches in a row. But Kramarić does still have some amends to make against Frankfurt: Kramarić has scored fewer goals against Eintracht Frankfurt than against any other Bundesliga opponent that he has faced on at least five occasions (two goals, the same number as against HSV).
