Tip and bets

2.24Bochum to advance further

In our opinion, Bochum will have a chance to record a victory. Both clubs are looking great at home, so hosts will have some advantage. Two out of three most recent head-to-head matches were won by a home team, few days ago Mainz were extremely lucky in the last match.

We don't think that visitors will put up a solid offensive performance today. Even if hosts won't be able to score in regular time, they are usually successful on penalty shoot-outs.

Our prediction - Bochum to advance further

Do you agree with this bet?

1.88Total under 2.5

We also offer to place a bet on total under. Hosts conceded only six goals at home in the current Bundesliga season, visitors also have one of the best defensive lines in the league. In both head-to-head matches between clubs this season the total was not beaten.

Our second bet is on total under 2,5 goals
