Bayern Munich vs Bochum Preview and Team News

Bayern Munich Team News

Bayern Munich may enter Saturday’s game with the expectation of blowing their opponents away, but nothing could be further from the truth. 

Although Bochum are minnows in front of the hosts, they have many good attackers who can exploit the wings and make the home squad look silly at times. Bayern Munich are currently the leaders of the league, and are well-placed to reclaim the title they lost to Bayer Leverkusen last season.

12/02/2025 UEFA Champions League Celtic FC 1-2 Bayern Munich Win

Bayern Munich’s 3-0 home victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League was a masterclass in tactical execution. 

Manager Vincent Kompany’s side showed defensive solidity, effectively neutralizing Leverkusen’s key playmaker, Florian Wirtz, through strategic man-marking by Joshua Kimmich. 

Offensively, Bayern capitalized on high pressing, forcing errors from Leverkusen’s defense, notably leading to Jamal Musiala’s goal following a goalkeeper’s mistake. Harry Kane’s brace highlighted Bayern’s clinical finishing, with his second goal resulting from a penalty after Nordi Mukiele’s red card for a reckless challenge. 

Bayern’s tactical discipline and physical dominance ensured control over the match, leaving Leverkusen struggling to implement their usual fluid attacking style. ​As always, English striker Harry Kane, will have a significant say in proceedings, especially when in one-on-one situations with opposition defenders.

Aleksandar Pavlovic is a doubtful starter due to an illness.

Bayern Munich predicted lineup vs Bochum (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Laimer, Kim, Upamecano, Davies; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Musiala, Coman; Kane.

Bochum Team News

Bochum have quite a few players ruled out of this game due to injuries and illnesses. Included are the likes of Erhan Masovic, Gerrit Holtmann, Ivan Ordets, Myron Boadu, and Philipp Hofmann. 

The latter will be deeply missed against their heavyweight opponents as he’s created the most big chances for Bochum (6). The side have not been in good form lately, having only scored 5 goals in their previous five matches. 

The worrying statistic is that Koji Miyoshi has the most shots on target per game for Bochum (1), and this could hamper their confidence.

Currently, they’re ranked in the 16th spot of the league table with just 17 points inside their kitty. If things don’t improve soon, one can expect them to get relegated to the lower divisions by the end of the season. 

Bochum will have to counter Bayern Munich’s quick passing tactics and try to avoid their opponents having any space in the final third.

Bochum predicted lineup vs Bayern Munich (3-5-2): Drewes; Masovic, Ordets, Bernardo; Passlack, Bero, Sissoko, Wittek, Miyoshi; Masouras, Bamba.

Bayern Munich vs Bochum Prediction

  • Pick: Bayern Munich to win
  • Odds: 1.09 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Bayern Munich 4-0 Bochum

Bayern Munich are the favourites to win on Saturday, and we anticipate them doing so comfortably. The question at the end of this game will not be if the hosts won, but about how many goals they managed to get into the visitors’ net. 

The visiting team will consider themselves fortunate if they come away from this fixture without conceding too many goals, which will worsen their dim relegation situation. 

Bayern have won nine out of 11 matches played against Bochum in the past, beating their opponents on all three occasions at home.

Bayern Munich vs Bochum Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Total over 3 goals
  • Odds: 1.4 (22Bet)

The home squad will be the primary attacker in this game, and we expect to see a total of over 3 goals. They’ve scored 10 goals in their last five events, which will boost them to carry on and continue hammering their rivals. 

Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is the competition’s top scorer (21 goals) and has showcased his worth every time he’s stepped onto the pitch. Defensively, too, Bayern Munich have an upper hand as they’ve kept the most clean sheets in the competition (12). 

The hosts have scored a total of over 3 goals in two of their previous three matches against Bochum at home. The same was witnessed in the reverse fixture played between them in October earlier this year.
