Bochum and Hertha Berlin kick off their 2. Bundesliga campaigns with both sides hoping for a strong start to the new season. Bochum had mixed results during preseason, but they showed attacking potential in recent matches, scoring in nine of their last ten games across all competitions. The hosts averaged 1.60 goals per match in their last ten fixtures, while BTTS landed in 80% of those games. Rakneberg and Sissoko remain sidelined, with new arrivals Karol Mets and Daniel Hanslik expected to make their competitive debuts.
Hertha, meanwhile, enter the opener after a productive preseason campaign, scoring an impressive 3.60 goals per game across their last ten matches. The visitors were particularly dangerous away from home, averaging 4.71 goals per match on the road. However, they will have to cope without last season’s top scorer Fabian Reese, who moved to Wolfsburg. New signing Oluwaseun Adewumi could make his 2. Bundesliga debut.
Both teams have been involved in high-scoring games, with Bochum’s last ten averaging 3.10 goals and Hertha’s 5.10. Therefore, our main prediction firmly points toward Both Teams to Score, with additional value on Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Friday 7 August 2026 at 19:30.
