MATCH PREVIEW

MAIN PREDICTION: HOME WIN

Bochum was overwhelmed in their visit to Hannover, failing to register a quality chance at goal until they were already trailing 2-0. Thomas Reis’ team conceded in the second minute and then had to rely on goalkeeper Manuel Riemann to keep the game close as the hosts had little trouble creating chances on the Bochum defense. A penalty at the one-hour mark made it 2-0, leaving the visitors little chance at even a single point. Now Bochum head home where they have scored eight goals in their last two league matches, both victories.   Heidenheim posted their third clean sheet in three matches, but could not get a goal for themselves, settling for a scoreless draw with visiting Jahn Regensburg. The result meant that Heidenheim remained one of two undefeated teams at home in the league this season, a sharp contrast to the nine goals allowed in five away league matches to date. With 12 goals scored in six home league matches, Bochum has the league’s second-most-productive attack at home, while allowing just four goals at home this season. Heidenheim is unbeaten in six league matches overall, but have managed just six goals in their five away league matches. Look for Bochum to rebound with a victory here.

 

HEAD TO HEAD

Bochum has won three consecutive matches with Heidenheim, including a 3-0 home win in their most-recent meeting.
