Command Analysis

Bochum

Hosts are trying to break away from the relegation zone, but so far team is only one point ahead of three bottom teams. Thomas Reis' team has just got a promotion into the top-flight division, but their players are pretty experienced.

Bochum recorded two consecutive victories, but in the most recent match failed to put up a fight against Borussia Monchengladbach (1:2). Team is trying to play offensively at home, so the head coach is unlikely to change the strategy in the game against Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim

The White-Blues are on their way into the European competitions zone, so they are trying to pick up points in every single match. So far team lacks consistency, but players and head coach are working on it.

Hoffenheim suffered a heavy defeat to Bayern (0:4) in the ninth round of Bundesliga, but it only increased their motivation, after such a humiliating defeat club trashed Holstein Kiel (5:1) in the German Cup and picked up three points in the match against Hertha (2:0). Now Sebastian Hoeness' team will have to prepare for a tough trip to Bochum.

Tip and bets

TipBochum to not lose

1.89

Bookmakers are not believing in Bochum, so the visitors are a slight favourite. But Thomas Reis' team is looking good in home matches, so we think that it will be a contested match.

Hoffenheim gained great form after a defeat to Bayern and club doesn't want to stop on that, team is aiming for the European competitions zone. Of course the White-Blues will play for a victory, because their opponent has just promoted to Bundesliga, so team is not so experienced. But hosts are able to put up a fight and we believe that they will avoid a defeat.

Our prediction - Bochum to not lose
