POULSEN DENIED AT THE DEATH!
Wow, unbelievable. Leipzig score in the sixth minute of added time to win the game, but it's called back for a handball. Halstenberg curls in the corner and Poulsen runs to meet it in the middle. He heads the ball first, but it bounces down and towards goal off his arm. The goal is correctly overturned by the referee. What a way to end the game.

POSCH DOWN
The Hoffenheim defender has gone down under a challenge from Poulsen, with his left foot getting caught. He doesn't need treatment though and we're back underway.

ONE LAST PUSH...
Leipzig are keeping the ball and looking to force one final chance on goal in the final minutes, but Hoffenheim are camped in with a five-man defence now.

ADDED TIME
We're into four minutes of time added on at the end of this one.
88'
CLOSE FOR SÖRLOTH
Haidara does well to run onto Sabitzer's pass into the Hoffenheim area and he floats a cross to the back post. Sörloth challenges with Sessegnon rather than going all-out for the ball, and in the end, it goes out over the top off the substitute's head.
86'
END-TO-END STUFF
Not only are Hoffenheim holding on but they are also attacking at the other end as well. However, it's been one of those nights where the attacks just haven't clicked.

A second yellow for Hoffenheim with Baumgartner pulling back Nkunku.

BEBOU HEADS OVER!
A good break down the right from Hoffenheim as Baumgartner lays Kaderabek in behind. He curls a cross into the middle which meets Bebou, but his glancing header floats wide at the near post.
73'
A GOOD OMEN FOR RBL?
Leipzig have never gone two home games without scoring in the Bundesliga under Nagelsmann. After the 0-1 defeat to Bayern, it would be two in a row if the scoreline stays like this.
72'
NEXT CHANGE
Moments after Sörloth fires over from close range, Poulsen joins the fray by replacing Forsberg who had just set up the Sörloth chance. If either team is going to get a winner here, it looks like being Leipzig.
69'
RARE CHANCE!
Hoffenheim get forward themselves and the ball is recycled down the left with Sessegnon crossing into the middle. It's cleared as far as Gacinovic and his shot takes a deflection wide. He's looking for a first Bundesliga goal since December 2017, by the way.
67'

SABITZER SO CLOSE!
The next chance for Leipzig as Adams works into the middle from the right before finding Sabitzer. He then moves the ball onto his left before curling a shot at goal, missing the post by just a matter of inches.
62'
CHANGES MADE
A substitution for both sides as Nordtveit comes on for Skov to provide more defensive support for Hoffenheim, while Sorloth is on for Olmo looking to add to the brace he scored at Bremen last weekend.

HUGE CHANCE FOR ADAMS!
The game is opening up for Leipzig as Forsberg floats into space behind the Hoffenheim backline. He controls a ball over the top before lofting a cross to the back post which beats Sessegnon to find Adams, but he angles his header wide of goal from close range. A golden opportunity for the opener.
59'
NKUNKU ON TARGET!
Finally, Leipzig get their first shot on target of the game with Nkunku played into the Hoffenheim area down the left by Sabitzer. He moves it onto his right foot to shoot at the near post, but Baumann is equal to it to parry the ball away.
56'
ENFORCED CHANGE
It's a shoulder problem which means Grillitsch has to come off here, with Gacinovic on in his place.

GRILLITSCH DOWN
The Austrian has taken a knock here in a challenge with Olmo, and may have to come off here. He and the Hoffenheim defence pressing Leipzig's attacking players across the pitch once again so far.
48'
FAST START
Leipzig have come out of the blocks quickly in the second half, pressing Hoffenheim into their own half. Haidara has lined up on the left, while Kampl has come into the middle and pushed Adams out to the right.
46'
POSCH BOOKED!
A quick yellow card in the second half as Posch brings down Nkunku.

SABITZER FIRES WIDE!
The first real shot in anger from either side comes as Angelino's long ball forward is chested down into the middle by Forsberg, and Sabitzer is onto the loose ball and strikes it with power towards goal. There's a slice on this one though and the ball drifts wide.
40'
SWITCH IN ATTACK
Kramaric has now moved out to the left and it's Baumgartner playing through the middle in the No.10 role. Let's see if that can bring Hoffenheim some chances on goal before the break...
37'
WING PLAY THE ORDER OF THE DAY
Just 15% of the Leipzig attack has come through the middle so far, with 41% down the left and 44% down the right. It's clear to see what the home side's gameplan is but so far, Hoffenheim have been up to the task.
33'
ALMOST FROM OLMO!
Leipzig find an opening with Forsberg and Olmo combining with a one-two to send the Spaniard into the area. It's one for him to chase though and he can only just reach it before the byline to cut back into the middle. Nkunku is waiting, but Kaderabek is on hand to clear in front of goal.
32'
DEFENCE WINNING THE DAY
Both sides struggling to find a way through the other so far with 0 shots on target at either end, while both sides have won over 30 tackles in the opening half an hour. Both coaches will be happy with how their sides have started for the most part.
27'
NOT FAR AWAY!
Hoffenheim have a free-kick on the right flank and take it short, allowing Skov to whip in a fierce cross to the back post. There's a couple of men looking to get on the end of it but the ball curls out of play in the end, but a sign of what Hoffenheim are capable of.
25'
LOOKING TO COUNTER
Hoffenheim are happy to be working on the counter here, it seems. But they've found that tough going since Leipzig have enjoyed more of the ball, with Orban, Konate and Upamecano handling the three-man attack coming up against them. Kramaric has been quiet in the middle as well.
20'
STAYING COMPOSED
Chances have been few and far between in the opening 20 minutes but Leipzig aren't rushing things here. They're always looking wide when pushing forward, with Angelino and Mukiele bombing up and down the flanks as expected.
16'
LEIPZIG TICKING THINGS OVER
13'
WELCOME BACK, ANGELINO!
The Spaniard is back in the Leipzig side after missing six games, five through injury as he returned to the bench last week. His first two crosses have caused some panic for Hoffenheim with Mukiele almost onto the first, and Baumann flapping at the second. A real weapon is back now for RBL.

GETTING INTO IT
It had been a slow start to Leipzig's passing play but the home side beginning to get a touch more joy now. Still, Hoffenheim's defence has kept the attacking trio of Olmo, Nkunku and Forsberg quiet thus far.
9'
BAUMGARTNER DOWN
The Austrian international has taken a tough knock to the back here from Adams in an aerial challenge and he's taking treatment here.
6'
BRIGHT START
Hoffenheim have started well here, with plenty of players pressing high up the pitch and making life difficult for Leipzig around their own area. The three-man defence for the hosts is not being afforded much time on the ball at all.
3'
HOFFENHEIM SET-UP
It does look like a 4-3-3 for Hoffenheim here, but with a twist in attack. It's Skov on the right, Baumgartner on the left and Rutter through the middle. That means Kramaric is operating in the No.10 role with Samassekou and Grillitsch behind him in midfield.

HERE WE GO!
The ball is rolling on Matchday 29 of the Bundesliga season with the hosts getting us underway...
キックオフ
THE NAGELSMANN DERBY
Nagelsmann oversaw 116 Bundesliga matches in charge of Hoffenheim, winning 51. That's a win ratio of 44 per cent (1.7 points per game) - a best-mark for a Hoffenheim coach. Hoeneß’s points-per-game average across his 28 matches at the helm is 1.11 (W8, D7, L13). Since joining Leipzig, Nagelsmann has won all three games played against his former employer.
CAN KRAM SPARK INTO LIFE?
Kramaric is Hoffenheim's 14-goal top scorer this term, but has only found the net once in his last seven and twice in 10 meetings with Leipzig. Hoffenheim, though, have failed to win eight of their last 10 Bundesliga matches (D3, L5), and are winless in their last five on the road.
THE BEST LEIPZIG YET?
Leipzig have 60 points on the board after 28 matches - a club record at this stage in a Bundesliga season. Die Roten Bullen have the best defence in this season’s Bundesliga, conceding just 23 goals. Hoffenheim have shipped 47.

WATCH: HOFFENHEIM 0-1 LEIPZIG - REVERSE FIXTURE
LEIPZIG TEAM NEWS
Sörloth - who hit a brace in the victory over Bremen, taking his tally to four in his last five games - drops to the bench with Forsberg leading the line. A major boost comes in the return of Angelino, an unused substitute last week, who starts tonight after the Spaniard recovered from a thigh complaint which has kept him sidelined since Matchday 22. Elsewhere, USA international Adams starts in central midfield after overcoming a back injury picked up in the Bremen game.
HOFFENHEIM TEAM NEWS
Sebastian Hoeneß appears to have reverted to a four-man defence this evening, but we can see exactly how they line up come kick-off. Kramaric improving on his recent output would surely help in getting Hoffenheim back on track. The Croatia international has hit 14 this season, but only one across the last nine Bundesliga games played. He was on the bench against Leverkusen last time out, but returns to the starting line-up tonight. Vogt, Gacinovic and Rudy all miss out after late races for fitness.

WHAT'S AT STAKE
For Leipzig, the title is still within grasp with six games to play.

Leipzig know winning each of their remaining games will give them the best fighting chance at the title. For Hoffenheim, just five points separate them from the relegation play-off spot with the Sinsheimers inconsistent form catching up with them.

Leipzig and Hoffenheim take us into a new Bundesliga weekend this evening with the hosts looking to close the gap to Bayern Munich at the top of the table, while visitors Hoffenheim are looking to avoid an end-of-season relegation scrap.
