Dortmund vs Bochum Prediction & Betting Tips (27 September)

Bochum have collected just two points from a possible 24 on the road of late, whilst they have failed to score more than a single goal in 14 consecutive top-flight trips. Dortmund, on the other hand, clearly know what they are doing on their own patch, winning six of their last seven league fixtures and outscoring their opponents by 19 goals to three across these wins.

It would be fair to say that Dortmund are rarely involved in low-scoring encounters in the Bundesliga, as 13 of their most recent 15 matches have produced at least two goals. Given that nine of the previous 12 Bochum away games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a surprise were this crucial contest not to deliver over 2.5 goals.

Over the course of their last 19 Bundesliga matches, Bochum have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Bochum can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving Dortmund have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
