Wolfsburg will be aiming to keep tabs on the sides in the European battle this weekend, as they bid to end a three-game winless run. Bochum will be the hosts, as they also look to end a three-game winless run in the Bundesliga.
Bundesliga Preview
Two sides in desperate need of a victory in the Bundesliga lock horns on Saturday. Bochum comes into this fixture sitting 15th in the current standings, which sees them sit just three points above the relegation places. They could drop into the bottom three spots this weekend if they are beaten, as their inferior goal difference would put them below Stuttgart and Schalke.
Bochum comes into this match after going three without a victory in the German top flight. Over that period, they have picked up two draws, including in their most recent outing against Union Berlin. But, they have been much more difficult to beat over their previous five, as they have avoided defeat in all previous matches. But, they will need to avoid conceding as many goals, as they have already allowed a league-high of 61.
Wolfsburg’s push for a European place this season appears to have hit a flat spot. They remain ninth in the current standings, and they are four points adrift of the top six. However, they have landed just a single victory over their previous five matches in the Bundesliga, and they come into this fixture having gone throughout a win.
Wolfsburg has been tough to score against throughout the season, as they have kept a league-high of eleven clean sheets. Their record on the road has also been incredibly consistent, as they have picked up 21 points on their travels. That is two more points than they have managed to win in their home matches.
Bochum vs Wolfsburg Head to Head
Wolfsburg has lost seven of their eleven away games against Bochum in the Bundesliga. Over that period, they have recorded just two victories, with the most recent of those coming in the 2006-07 season. But, Wolfsburg has lost just one of their last seven league matches against Bochum.
Bochum vs Wolfsburg Prediction
Wolfsburg has struggled in away matches against Bochum in recent seasons, but we could see them having the quality to get maximum points this weekend. They have excellent on the road throughout this campaign, and their strong defensive record could set them up perfectly for a 1-0 win.
