Borussia Dortmund vs Bochum Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 27th September 2024
Round 5 of the new Bundesliga campaign sees Bochum visit Borussia Dortmund this coming Friday. The visitors hope to get a result at Signal Iduna Park to boost their chances of avoiding another relegation battle.
Looking at the current standings in the Bundesliga, the two teams are separated by six points.
Bochum have only managed to claim one point after a single draw from four matches this season. After four encounters, Borussia Dortmund have scraped together seven points which hands them number 8 in the Bundesliga table.
Borussia Dortmund took down Bochum in their most recent meeting, and bookmakers deem another win for the home side a likely scenario on Friday.
Borussia Dortmund are confident they will be scoring goals in their next assignment in the Bundesliga, as they show off very admirable numbers from their past ten matches. The hosts scored two goals on average per match, or 20 goals in total, while allowing 17 goals against, for an average of 1.7 per outing. They managed three clean sheets along the way.
Bochum are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 12 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.2 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of 23 goals, and while Bochum claimed zero clean sheets, they conceded an average of 2.3 goals per match.
Their latest encounter was a belter of a game, which finished with a 3-1 scoreline. An uncommon result, but we would not mind a similar goal fest this coming Friday.
Borussia Dortmund vs Bochum Prediction
Borussia Dortmund Form
Borussia Dortmund are looking to bounce back from a recent setback and get back to winning ways. In their last three matches, they first took out FC Heidenheim by 4-2, before beating Club Bruges by 0-3. The winning streak came to an end against VfB Stuttgart, who ran out 5-1 winners. Borussia Dortmund won four of their previous six Bundesliga games at the Signal Iduna Park. They both drew and lost once, as they conceded five and scored 16 goals.
Borussia Dortmund enter the season as candidates for a top three finish, but more than a third place would in the end would be a rather big surprise.
Bochum Form
A single draw prevents Bochum from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short, losing by 0-2 and 2-1 against Borussia Moenchengladbach and Freiburg, respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation, as they were able to hang on for a 2-2 draw against Holstein Kiel. Bochum only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Bundesliga. In these six matches they drew zero and lost five as well as being outscored by 13 goals to seven.
While a title challenge may be a bit of a stretch, Borussia Dortmund look a solid bet for a top three finish at the end of the season.
We'd be flabbergasted to see Borussia Dortmund waste away a win against Bochum, who could be in for a battering, the way goals have been flowing lately.
