Fortuna Dusseldorf return home aiming to bounce back from a 2–1 defeat to Darmstadt, but they must cope without key defender Jesper Daland, who is suspended following his red card. Anyhow, we predict a 2-0 home win as Bochum are not considered good travellers. Die Fortunen's home numbers remain strong, averaging 2.00 points per game and winning 60% of matches played in Düsseldorf. Defensively, they allow just 0.80 goals per home match, backed by an impressive 40% home clean-sheet rate. However, the attack remains inconsistent, scoring only 1.00 goal per home game despite an xG of 1.47.
VfL Bochum travel without suspended full-back Maximilian Wittek, who serves a one-match ban after yellow-card accumulation. Bochum remain difficult to beat, going unbeaten in their last five with a run of draws, but their away output is modest: just 0.67 goals scored per game and 0% away win rate. Their xGA climbs to 1.89 on the road, suggesting defensive vulnerability outside home turf.
Fortuna Dusseldorf have been earning 2 points per home game of late and with Bochum struggling on the road, Home Win is our main betting tip for this 2. Bundesliga matchup. Additionally, Under 3.5 goals (80%) and Dusseldorf to Score first bets seem appealing.
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Friday 27 February 2026 at 17:30.
