Bayer Leverkusen can temporarily cut the lead at the top of Bundesliga standings as they host relegation-threatened Bochum in a matchday 27 meeting. This match at BayArena on Friday between the second-placed Die Schwarzroten and the 16th-placed Die Blauen comes with our prediction of over 2.5 goals.
Leverkusen have 56 points and are six points behind leaders Bayern, while Bochum’s 20 points keep them five points outside safety places. The defending champions went into the international break after a surreal 4-3 away win at Stuttgart, where they scored twice from the 88th minute onwards.
That made up for the loss to Werder Bremen in the previous round, giving them three wins from four league matches. Crucially though, they have won just one point from their last two home league matches.
Bochum were beaten 3-1 at home by Eintracht Frankfurt in their last game before the break, making it just two wins from their nine recent league matches (W2, D3, L4).
They are still stuck in the relegation zone, and a record of conceding 52 goals has been a concern. That said, Bochum avoided defeat in four of their last six away league matches and have even won five points from the last three trips.

Our Bayer Leverkusen vs Bochum Prediction
Bayer Leverkusen cut short Bayern Munich’s lead at the top to six points going into the international break. They can eat further into that lead with a win here, as Bayern play St. Pauli a day later. That doesn’t guarantee instant success, though, as Bochum have been stubborn in recent games, frustrating their opponents. They even drew the reverse fixture 1-1, so Leverkusen will be aware of putting a wrong step. There should be goals here, nonetheless, and our Bayer Leverkusen vs Bochum prediction is over 2.5.
