Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund prediction
Bochum began the new Bundesliga season with an embarrassing 5-0 loss away at Stuttgart. That loss reflects how bad Bochum have been away from home. In fact last season, they conceded 40 goals on the road, a record only bettered by Schalke who conceded 42. In this game against Dortmund, they will be looking to put that this run behind them, count on home support and get back to winning ways. Given how hard they fought to avoid relegation last season, we expect Bochum to start garnering points early enough to avoid another battle against the drop.
For Dortmund, Donyell Malen’s 88th minute goal was enough to seal an opening day victory against Koln. Having narrowly missed out on the title last season, Edin Terzić’s men will have their eyes set on putting up another challenge. To ease this journey, making it 2 wins out of 2 will be on Dortmund’s agenda this Saturday.
A clash between Bochum and Dortmund is always an entertaining one loaded with goals all round. In fact, 6 of their last 8 meetings produced over 2.5 goals each. Based on this, for our Bochum vs Dortmund prediction, we expect at least 3 goals to be scored.
