Own goal condemns Hoffenheim despite dominating Dortmund on the ball
Hoffenheim lost 3-2 to Borussia Dortmund at SNP Arena in Bundesliga matchday 2, despite controlling large spells of the contest. Leon Avdullahu put the hosts ahead just before the break, finishing an assist from Vladimír Coufal to send them in 1-0 up at half-time.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Tim Lemperle doubled the home side's lead five minutes into the second half, converting a chance created by Adam Daghim. Dortmund responded swiftly, with Serhou Guirassy pulling one back in the 61st minute from a Waldemar Anton assist before setting up Fábio Silva five minutes later to level the score at 2-2.
The decisive moment came in the 86th minute when Albian Hajdari turned the ball into his own net, handing Dortmund a 3-2 victory they had not led outright until that point. Hoffenheim finished with the greater share of possession and more shots and corners, yet could not convert their territorial dominance into a positive result, remaining without a win in the league so far this season.
The defeat leaves Hoffenheim 15th in the table after two matches without a point, while Dortmund moved up to second on six points from two games.
Serhou Guirassy scored one and set up another for Dortmund, capping the comeback with a rating of 8.87 that topped all performers on the pitch.
Hoffenheim held 60 percent of possession yet still finished on the losing side, underlining how little control translated into goals for the home side.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave 1899 Hoffenheim 31%, the draw 27%, Borussia Dortmund 42%. It finished 1899 Hoffenheim 2–3 Borussia Dortmund.
Borussia Dortmund's rating edge outweighs 1899 Hoffenheim's home ground — Borussia Dortmund are the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade on top gives Borussia Dortmund the lean. The draw at 27% is about what a gap this size usually leaves.
Why Borussia Dortmund at 42%?
Borussia Dortmund sit 194 points higher on our strength rating — 1800 to 1994. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,132 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims 1899 Hoffenheim's column. Across 10,911 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018. The 300 most similar past games finished 29–26–45.
Why only 42%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 42% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 27% and 1899 Hoffenheim at 31%.
Why the draw at 27%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 3.3 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 17,073. The goals environment takes 2.3 points off the draw. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
1899 Hoffenheim average 6 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 194 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. 1899 Hoffenheim have shed 73 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.7% of 9,701 such games vs 34.6% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
