Bochum vs Bayern Munich Predictions

• Bochum sit bottom of the Bundesliga with just one point from seven games
• Three successive Bayern matches have featured 3+ goals
• The visitors have also won five of their seven league outings

Bochum’s miserable run set to continue

It has been an utterly dreadful start to the season for Bochum, who sit bottom of the Bundesliga having picked up merely one point from seven outings.

To rub salt into the wound, things do not appear to be geting any better for the Blues, whose three successive defeats ahead of this meeting have seen them concede a total of ten goals.

Markus Feldhoff has just taken over as head coach, and he needs to find a way of shoring up that defence, with each of his side’s last five games featuring 3+ strikes.

Will Bayern bounce back?

Bochum will therefore be fearing the arrival of Bayern Munich, who sit top of the table ahead of this round after collecting 17 of an available 21 points from seven unbeaten games.

Vincent Kompany’s side are also comfortably the top scorers in the Bundesliga, netting 24 times so far, significantly more than an average of three per game.

Their last league outing was a 4-0 victory over Stuttgart, one of three matches in a row to include 3+ strikes, including a 4-1 defeat away to Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League in midweek.

I predict that Bayern will win this game with 3+ goals scored, selecting 3-1 as a correct score prediction.
