Bochum vs Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga
by Joseph King in Bundesliga Predictions
Matchday 18 in the German Bundesliga sees bottom of the barrel Bochum playing host to fourth-placed RB Leipzig at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion. We’ve got the match prediction for this clash between Die Unabsteigbaren and Die Roten Bullen!
After taking 15 matches until finally posting their first win of the 2024/25 Bundesliga campaign, Bochum are now on something of a roll.
A 2-0 home win over St. Pauli on Wednesday made it two wins in their last three outings, lifting Bochum up to nine points on the season. What’s more, the hosts could find themselves sitting on 11 points should their 1-1 draw with Union Berlin be counted as a win after their goalkeeper was struck in the head by a cigarette lighter.
Bochum, who narrowly avoided relegation last season via their playoff win over Düsseldorf, are currently five (potentially three) points from safety.
Leipzig come to North Rhine-Westphalia looking to bounce back after a tough 2-1 away loss to last season’s runners-up Stuttgart. The visitors grabbed an early lead but would ultimately concede twice in the second half and see two players sent off in the final five minutes.
The loss was the second in the last three Bundesliga fixtures for Leipzig and saw their lead over fifth-place Stuttgart slashed to just a single point.

Our Bochum vs Leipzig Prediction
Bochum will be feeling good about their chances of causing an upset on home soil as they come into this match on their best run of the season. However, their match against Leipzig presents a big challenge against a top four side.
Leipzig will have to do without their top two goalscorers in Benjamin Sesko and Lois Openda after both were sent off in the loss to Stuttgart. With that being said, the visitors should still have enough depth to see them to three points. Our Bochum vs RB Leipzig prediction: Leipzig wins the match.
