Bochum is unbeaten in their last three home matches and won two of them as well. Their only h2h tie against this opponent saw them avoiding a loss, and avoiding conceding as well. Magdeburg, meanwhile, was winless in seven of their last nine fixtures, and in three of their last four on the road.
Bochum has the home advantage this time around, and they remained unbeaten against two teams from the top-five in the last three match-days. As such their confidence is high and will show against the lower-tier team. In addition, Magdeburg, who has no option but to go all-out-attack mode, due to the need of points, will be forced to leave gaps behind, which the hosts will take advantage of. Expect a win for the hosts.
Finally, the hosts, despite their upper hand, will have to deal with the desperation of Magdeburg. While the home team can easily take the three points on offer, a clean sheet will be extremely hard to achieve. Moreover, Bochum conceded in eight of their last ten home games, and Magdeburg scored in four of their last six. It’s logical to expect goals from both teams.
