Bayer Leverkusen vs Bochum Preview and Team News

Bayer Leverkusen Team News

Bayer produced a massive comeback against Stuttgart in the last round. Despite trailing 3-2 till the 88th minute, Xabi Alonso’s men first drew the game until Patrik Shick scored a header to ensure a 3-4 victory.

The win reminded us of the 2023/24 season when they were clinical at the latter stages of their meetings. Leverkusen reduced the gap with leaders Bayern to six points. While the chances of repeating the back-to-back victory are slim, they won’t give up easily.

The home squads’ talisman, Florian Wirtz, is still injured. In addition, Nathan Tella, Edmond Tapsoba, and Mario Hermoso will miss out on the upcoming fixture. 

Bayer Leverkusen predicted lineup vs Bochum

Bayer Leverkusen predicted lineup vs Bochum (3-4-2-1): Hradecky; Hincapie, Tah, Mukiele; Grimaldo, Andrich, Xhaka, Frimpong; Adli, Palacios; Schick. 

Bochum Team News

After a surprising 2-3 victory over Bayern at Allianz Arena, Bochum succumbed to a 1-3 defeat against Eintracht at home. They’re currently involved in a relegation battle, sitting 16th with 20 points, five behind of the safe zone.

During the international break, Bochum managed to hold a friendly against Preussen Munster. They won convincingly (4-2), but the real test awaits them against Leverkusen, who’ve been in fantastic form recently. 

Brazilian Bernardo, who’s one of the top players in the club, served his suspension and will return to the squad. There will be no absentees on Friday.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Bochum Prediction

  • Pick: Leverkusen to Win (-1.5) Handicap
  • Odds: 1.75 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 Bochum

Leverkusen clinched a vital victory against Stuttgart in the last round, and there are glimmers of hope to return back in the championship race. They cannot imagine better opponents than Bochum, who are struggling for survival.

Moreover, Alonso’s men have already lost two consecutive home games, so we think it’s an ideal chance for them to bounce back. Even without Florian Wirtz, they can dominate the match entirely.

Patrik Shick will aim to increase his goalscoring tally to 18. The Czech international has scored a brace against Faroe Islands. We expect the hosts to win a convincing victory, and our first pick would be Bayer Leverkusen to succeed with a (-1.5) handicap. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Bochum Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
  • Odds: 1.48 (22Bet)

After Bayern, Leverkusen have scored the highest number of goals (59) in the Bundesliga. The visitors are third in terms of conceded (52). Friday’s fixture promises a high-scoring affair, given the teams’ recent performances.

After going scoreless in three home matches across all competitions, Bayer will aim to end their dry streak. Bochum, on the other hand, are dangerous on counterattacks and will likely get some chances.

In three out of the previous four H2H confrontations, we saw at least three goals scored between these clubs. We anticipate the same in this clash, and our second pick would be over 2.5 goals.
