Starting during return
Coufal (thigh) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Frankfurt.
ANALYSIS
Coufal is back in the starting XI to face Frankfurt after shaking off the thigh issue that forced him off late against Leverkusen. He avoided structural damage and was cleared after further assessments earlier this week. His return is a major boost for Hoffenheim, especially with Valentin Gendrey still sidelined on the right side of the defense.
