Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction & Picks - Bundesliga

 by Bradley Gibbs in Bundesliga Picks

Saturday's German Bundesliga action includes a game at Vonovia Ruhrstadion, the home of VFL Bochum, who'll take on Borussia Dortmund after picking up a positive road result last time out. On the face of it, this looks like a big chance for BVB to improve on their rather displeasing league position, but they've been far from consistent this season, while the hosts may just be improving.

Let's face it, in recent weeks, the Bochum boys haven't done too badly, or rather they've improved on where they were earlier in the season, avoiding defeat in five of their last eight Bundesliga game, picking up three wins during that time. Such efforts mean that Dieter Hecking's men, though still bottom, have a much more realistic chance of surviving the drop. 

For Dortmund, relegation isn't something to consider, but what the visitors will be thinking about, and regularly at that, is the fact that they're way behind where they want to be. As things stand, Niko Kovac's men are down in 11th, four points off the top six. They'll fancy themselves here, but we shouldn't forget that they played away during the week and have thus had less time to prepare than the hosts.

Bochum - Borussia Dortmund Key Points

  1. The visitors are without a clean sheet on the road (in the league) in each of their last nine.
  2. BVB have conceded at least two goals in six of their last nine away games (in the Bundesliga).
  3. The hosts have scored two or more in two of their last four at home, including against relevant opponents RB Leipzig.
  4. In their last five league games at home, the hosts have averaged a very respectable 1.62 expected goals.

Our Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction

Given the situation for both teams ahead of this game, the hosts scoring two or more goals looks quite generously priced. Let's face it, with the lively Myron Boadu in hot form up top, this Bochum team now looks much more threatening offensively, while they've thrived on the break in games not dissimilar to this, scoring three at home to RB Leipzig recently. The visitors have struggled massively to keep things tight in games of this nature, recently conceding four on the road to Kiel, while they won't be as well rested as the hosts either after that mid-week UEFA Champions League fixture. Our Bochum vs Dortmund Pick: Bochum to Score Over 1.5 Goals.
