Bochum, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Bochum players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Wolfsburg. In that game they had 54% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Wolfsburg who had 9 attempts and 5 on target.
Having scored 5 goals and conceded 10 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 21 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games overall.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Vonovia Ruhrstadion, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 4 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
1899 Hoffenheim, Recent Form1899 Hoffenheim will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 4-3 win in their home outing against B. M'gladbach. In that game they recorded 59 % of the possession, with 28 attempts on goal, 9 on target. Their opponents found the target on 7 of their 13 shots on goal.
Pellegrino Matarazzo, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 16 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 10 goals scored. They have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 25 games; however, playing away from home this season, they have scored in 14 of their 15 games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Maximilian Beier is the man of the moment at 1899 Hoffenheim right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 5 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 3-1 win for 1899 Hoffenheim.
Goals should be on the cards for Bochum in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against achtzehn99 in their last 6 meetings together. In their last 3 away league games against Die Unabsteigbaren, Hoffenheim have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Playing at home, Bochum have won the last 3 and are unbeaten in the last 3 times they have faced Hoffenheim in the league.
Bochum manager Heiko Butscher has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Michael Esser (Knee), Bernardo Fernandes Silva (Knee), Moritz-Broni Kwarteng (Medial Collateral Ligament), Danilo Soares (Muscle), Niclas Thiede (Broken finger) and Mohammed Tolba (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pellegrino Matarazzo has a number of injury concerns in his Hoffenheim squad to contend with: Mërgim Berisha (Cruciate ligament), Dennis Geiger (Groin), Marco John (Cruciate ligament), Max Moerstedt (Bruised leg) and Stanley Nsoki (Hip)
