"Three things to know about Hoffenheim (courtesy of Bayern's official website): Hoffenheim boast the league's second most efficient attack with 43 goals in 20 games, behind only Bayern's 74. After scoring a brace against Union Berlin last week, Andrej Kramarić became the third most prolific non-German player in the Bundesliga with 134 goals, behind Claudio Pizarro (197) and Robert Lewandowski (312). Hoffenheim has won six of their last seven matches, with their last defeat being at the hands of Dortmund in early December. Prediction: Bayern wins 4-2 with goals from Harry Kane (x2), Michael Olise, and Serge Gnabry off the bench. Andrej Kramarić scores twice because he's that kind of player."
