FC Koln vs Bochum Prediction & Betting Tips (6 April)

This 2023-2024 financial year is turning sour for this Cologne team which finds itself in the depths of the Bundesliga rankings. 17th at the start of this 28th day, this team is still 7 lengths behind the first non-relegation team which is none other than this team from Bochum. Unable to achieve any success for more than 2 months, the Boucs were able to take a point at Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-3 before falling to Leipzig 1-5. Finally, last week, they went for a new draw with Augsburg 1-1 to come back to within one point of the play-off, Mainz. For their part, Bochum thought they had done the hardest part in the maintenance course by taking quickly quite ahead of the relegation zone.

But the last few weeks have been very difficult for the visitors who suffered 4 consecutive defeats before the international break against Borussia Mönchengladbach 5-2, Leipzig 1-4, Freiburg 1-2 and finally Mainz 2-0. Last weekend, VfL finally stopped the bleeding but only obtained a disappointing draw against the red lantern Darmstadt 2-2 while leading by 2 goals at the hour of play. In the standings , Thomas Leitsch's players remain 15th but they are only 6 units ahead of the jump-off.

As for the locals, the little used Uth, the defender Kilian and the replacement striker Dietz have yet to give up participating in this meeting. Young striker Diehl is also unavailable due to injury. Coming out physically injured in the second half last week, the Armenian Adamyan is also not guaranteed to be present.

On the other hand, center forward Selke will be operational. He scored his 6th goal of the season last week and is still ahead of the precious Alidou (4 goals).
