Command Analysis
Bochum
GermanyCurrent form
Bochum actively joined the fight for survival, scored five points in the previous three rounds and now the chances of salvation are quite decent. In any case, Dieter Hecking's team is only inferior in additional indicators to Heidenheim, which occupies the 16th place in the play-off zone. The Diehards were most impressed with their 2-0 home victory over Borussia Dortmund. This was followed by an away draw with strong Wolfsburg (1-1). It should be noted that Bochum is a typical home team – they managed to score 12 of their 15 points on their own field. Moreover, in the previous five matches at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion, the team suffered only one defeat from Freiburg with a minimum score of 0:1.
Disqualifications and injuries
The appearance of Passlak and Boado on the field is questionable today.
Interesting betting trends
- In the last three matches, Bochum has not lost in the first half.
- Bochum has not conceded more than one goal in six of the previous seven Bundesliga matches.
Approximate composition: Horn – Ordets, Mashovich, Bernardo–Ehrman, Kraus, Bero, Sissoko, Holtman–Hoffman, Masouras.
Hoffenheim
GermanyCurrent form
Hoffenheim has not been stable throughout the season, which is largely due to the fact that they had to play in the Europa League. The team left the European Cup, failed to make it to the playoffs. It was not immediately after the departure that Christian Ilzer's team found their game, suffered two defeats, but then noticeably improved. In the previous two rounds, we managed to defeat Werder on the road with a score of 3:1 and part ways with Stuttgart on our own field (1:1). With 22 points, Hoffenheim is coming to the start of Round 24 in 14th position in the standings. There is a difficult trip to Bochum ahead, where there have been defeats in the last four face-to-face matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hoffenheim has big losses in the squad. In addition to the numerous injured players, the virus spread in the team last weekend, and it is far from certain that the situation was stabilized. Kabak, Zhendray, Lenz, Premel, Glozhek and Bebu will not play today due to injuries. The entry of Bauman, Estigor, Samassek, Tohumdzhu, Kaderabek and Geiger into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In four of the last five matches, Hoffenheim has not won in the first half.
- In five of Hoffenheim's previous six Bundesliga matches, a goal exchange bet was played.
Approximate composition: L.Philippe – Prass, Chaves, Akpoguma, Nsoki – Becker, Stach – Bischof, Kramarich, Bulter – Orban.

Secondly, Bochum beat the upcoming opponents in four previous matches on their own field and, as a whole, they take the lion's share of points at home. Plus, the diehards are decently motivated by the struggle for survival and have noticeably improved the game at the moment.
