For Hoffenheim, Andrej Kramari\u0107 has been central to their forward play, with the team recording 25 big chances created and 21 goals from 10 matches (2.1 goals per game). Hoffenheim&#8217;s accuracy is strong\u2014shot accuracy of 51.6%\u2014and their attacking unit has produced significantly more shots on target (50) than Mainz (28). For Mainz, the goals are more evenly spread but their xG (12.2) versus actual goals (10) underlines a need for sharper finishing. Expect set-piece threats, with Mainz having netted three penalties, but their lack of a clinical edge has hurt them.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr \/>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/safergamblinguk.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1410064 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-1024x341.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-1024x341.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-1536x512.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-2048x683.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-400x133.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-600x200.jpg 600w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-180x60.jpg 180w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-150x50.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/10111929\/Twitter-Header-1-40x13.jpg 40w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Safer Gambling Week 2025 takes place from 17 \u2013 23rd November 2025 and is a cross-industry initiative to promote safer gambling in the UK.
