Bochum and Bayern Munich will face off on Saturday afternoon in the German top flight with both teams keen to collect all three points to boost their respective positions near the bottom and top of the Bundesliga.
Although they hold supposed home advantage at their Vonovia Ruhrstadion, Saturday’s hosts, Bochum, face an extremely tough task when they play host to the usual suspects at the top of the Bundesliga, namely Bayern Munich, especially as the home side have registered just the one win out of their last seven matches overall.
Bochum’s singular success during this seven-match period came in the form of a 1-0 home win over Wolfsburg but defeats to Arminia Bielefeld, Union Berlin and Mainz suggest that this upcoming clash against the league leaders may well end in another loss.
Bochum’s outlook when referring to results at home though seem more encouraging as the hosts have lost just twice on home soil all season and just once in their last eight games, while Bochum have failed to hit the back of the net just twice at home all season.
Rather predictably, Bayern Munich sit top of the Bundesliga once again and possess a useful looking nine-point cushion over 2nd placed Borussia Dortmund heading into this weekend’s German top flight action.
Bayern have won their last three games on the trot with victories gained over FC Cologne 4-0, Hertha Berlin 4-1 and RB Leipzig 3-2, scoring 11 goals in the process and indeed, goals have featured on a regular basis where Bayern Munich have been concerned throughout this Bundesliga campaign.
19 of Bayern Munich’s 21 league matches to date this term have resulted in over 2.5 goals being scored with Bayern usually ending up on top, in fact, Bayern have won 17 of their 21 games so far this season.
In addition, Bayern Munich have won eight of their 10 away games so far in this season’s domestic top flight campaign so a win for the visitors looks very much on the cards here as well.
When it comes to meetings against Bochum, Bayern Munich have absolutely dominated their opposition as the visitors have won each of the last eight meetings on the trot against Bochum with all eight encounters also resulting in over 2.5 goals.
To boost the odds on the bet coupon, an away win and over 2.5 goals looks a decent prospect.
