Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Bochum will look to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Borussia Dortmund when they take on Borussia M’gladbach in the Bundesliga round 14. Bochum aim to give fans some cheer in their last home game before the World Cup break, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against die Fohlen. Goalkeeper Marko Johansson should recover in time to face M’gladbach, while all Dominique Heintz, Erhan Masovic, Jacek Goralski, Takuma Asano, and Paul Grave remain in the treatment room.
The visitors, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 3-1 win over Stuttgart, and seeing that they want to move closer to the Champions League berth, away triumph should be considered. Stefan Lainer is a major doubt following his recent positive test for COVID-19, as well as fellow defender Nico Elvedi, whilst all Sommer, Wolf, Neuhaus, Itakura, and Jantschke should miss out with injuries.
