Tip and bets

1.77Bochum: total over 1

Mainz signed a number of new players, so they will need some time for adaptation. Bochum look great at their home, they even beat Bayern here in the previous season. Hosts have a strong offensive line, which visitors have problems with defensive game. Especially on away matches, they were unable to keep a clean sheet for 15 matches in a row. Bochum should be able to score at least once tonight.

Our prediction - Bochum: IT over 1

2.36Bochum to win with a (0) handicap

It's not easy to guess the result of this game, but we think that hosts are slight favourites for this one. As we already stated, Bochum look great at home, sometimes they are capable of a surprise. Mainz is certainly not an unbeatable opponent, especially when they are the visiting team.

Our second bet is on Bochum to win with a (0) handicap
