Leipzig vs Bochum Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga
by Kennedy Kechula in Bundesliga Predictions
Bochum and Leipzig will face off on the first weekend of the Bundesliga at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday. The two sides are coming off contrasting outings in the DFB Pokal but the target here will be the three points on offer. Follow on for our prediction of this match.
Hosts Leipzig survived an early scare before dispatching Rot-Weiss Essen 4-1 in the German Cup last weekend. Gears now switch to the Bundesliga, their target being to improve on their fourth-place finish. Save for Dani Olmo’s departure, Leipzig still have the core of their best team from last season.
That and a few additions make Die Roten Bullen favorites on Match Day 1. They have nine wins in 11 meetings with Bochum, including six in the seven they played as hosts.
Bochum’s biggest win last season was the confirmation of their stay in the Bundesliga. They had to go through the playoffs, which ended 3-3 on aggregate before they won on penalties.
Die Unabsteigbaren didn’t have a great competitive start to this season and will come here as underdogs. They were eliminated in the first round of the German Cup by promoted Bundesliga 2 side Jahn Regensburg.
Having gone winless in their opening nine league matches last season, newly appointed Peter Zeidler will be eyeing a better league start. The visitors managed just seven wins in the entire Bundesliga season in 2023/24.
They lost eight times in their final 12 matches of the regular season. Among the teams that beat them in that period was Leipzig, who won 4-1 in Bochum.

Our Leipzig vs Bochum Prediction
Bochum survived in the Bundesliga through the relegation/promotion playoff and will want to do better this time. However, their opening league game is a massive challenge, a fixture they rarely win. This, coming after their early elimination from the DFB Pokal, points to another season of early struggles.
They were poor starters last term and it could happen again, though their scoring run should give them a positive outlook of things. Leipzig remain favorites in this fixture but have to address their defensive struggles. Our prediction for RB Leipzig v Bochum is for Leipzig to win and both teams to score.
