RB Leipzig will be looking to get their Champions League challenge back on track this weekend when they travel to Bochum. The hosts will be looking for a vital win, which could see them move eleven points clear of the relegation places in the Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig will be hoping to get their season back on track this weekend after suffering a late defeat against Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga last weekend. A draw would have been a fair result based on the balance of play in that fixture, but the defending champions stole the win in second half injury time. However, Leipzig will need to put that defeat behind them quickly.
The away side come into this weekend after winning two of their last four, while last weekend’s defeat against Bayern was their only setback over that period. Their recent results leave Leipzig sitting fifth in the standings, but they could move into fourth with a victory this weekend, as they are just one point behind Borussia Dortmund at this stage of the season.
Bochum will have the home field advantage this weekend. They are still looking for vital points in their battle to avoid the drop, but they come into this round in a fairly solid position, boasting an eight-point advantage over the bottom three. However, a run of victories could see them move clear of danger.
Bochum have been challenging to overcome in recent weeks after losing just once in their last four. They have recorded one win over that period, with that success coming in their most recent home fixture against Bayern Munich. That victories enhanced their home record this term, as they have suffered just one defeat in eleven matches.
Leipzig have landed wins in three of the last five Bundesliga meetings between these sides. However, they are winless in their previous two against Bochum, with the reverse clash this term ending in a 0-0 draw. Bochum secured a 1-0 win in this exact fixture last season.
Leipzig look good value to bounce back to winning ways soon. However, it is hard to overlook Bochum’s dominant home record in the Bundesliga this term, and we find it hard to bet against them picking up at least a point from this showdown on Saturday.
