Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Bochum play host to Heidenheim at their Vonovia Ruhrstadion in what is expected to be an interesting Bundesliga encounter. Bochum are fighting tooth and nail to avoid relegation and a win over Heidenheim will see them move one step closer to meeting the goal. The likes of Kevin Stoger, Goncalo Paciencia, Tim Oermann, Nicklas Thiede, Danilo Soares, Mohammed Tolba, and Michael Esser are all out of contention with injuries for the home side.
Frank Schmidt’s troops, on the other hand, came from two goals behind to beat star-studded Bayern Munich 3-2 at the weekend, but given the importance of Saturday’s clash for Bochum, home win should be considered. Midfielder Kevin Sessa is pushing for a rare start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while Nikola Dovedan remains on the sidelines through suspension. Both Thomas Keller and Elidon Qenaj are sidelined with injuries, while Norman Theuerkauf should miss out through illness.
