Select at the DB timetable additionally as means of transport "only local transport". This way you'll see also the cheaper price options. There are anyway no far distance trains for this route.
On Saturday you can use the Baden-Württemberg Ticket for this trip. Maybe also another one for the return trip on Monday, but on weekdays the Baden-Württemberg ticket is only valid past 9am.
Baden-Württemberg Ticket is EUR 28,00 for 2-5 persons traveling together. It covers all regional trains and nearly all other local public transport in Baden-Württemberg. E.g. the buses to Sinsheim-Dühren.
There are extra buses from Dühren to get you to the match.

Public transport is included with your match ticket.

Before you get bored to death on Sunday morning in Dühren, visit the interesting Technik Museum in Sinsheim. This is right next to the Rhein-Neckar-Arena.

You have to calculate however that you're not the only ones having this idea.
DB timetable

From: Augrund, Sinsheim-Dühren
To: Sinsheim Museum/Arena
There are 2 good connections dep at 09:01 and 10:01. The ALT is a scheduled mini bus taxi which runs only on request. But I'm sure the hotel can do such a phone call for you. Of course you can order a taxi also right from your hotel to the museum/arena. As this is a rather short distance it won't get expensive.

I'd like to second abalada: go, see the Technik Museum.

a Rolls Royce and a smiling tiger
by globetrott
Something special in the Sinsheim technical-museum is the fact, that accesories of the time, puppets in the right costumes and a lot more is added, in order to give you a better impression of the exhibits. Simply click on my picture and see the "friendly" tiger in this scene with a great old Rolls Royce car in the desert.
Well, I think the tiger has to still work a bit on the perfect smile...
KRUPP Steam train of 1939
by globetrott
The Sinsheim museum shows also a lot of great old steam locomotives. On my picture :
KRUPP Steam train of 1939 with a total length of 23.9 m , 2200hp and a top-speed of 90km/h
When you click on my pictrure, you may see the gigantic dimensions of that train against the persons standing in front of it.
Avelin & Porter steam engine 1905
by globetrott
A lot of steam-engines including the steam-monsters that were built in order to help the farmers with their work.
But finally the farmers found out, that a plow, with a weight of more than 20 tons would be much too heavy to be used in agriculture. On my picture : One of the old engines to build streets :
It dates back to 1905, had 130 hp and a weight of 16 tons.
an engine of an Austrian submarine of 1917
by globetrott
This engine with 1200hp and a 6cylindre-engine was built by MAN in Augsburg/Germany to be used in the submarine Nr.18 of the Austrian Navy in 1917.
In 1918 it was taken out of the submarine and was then working in a silver-mine in Bolivia. It somehow came then home towards the austrian border and was found in Pesciera/ Lago di Garda and taken to Sinsheim.
The engine has a weight of 26 tons. Beeing an Austrian myself, it was funny to listen to this story.
And you see, tiny Austria had a real navy a long time ago... ;-))
And b.t.w. one of the best known captains of an austrian submarine in WW I was called von Trapp - he was the father of the real Trapp-family whose family-story was filmed and called "Sound of Music"
