Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund

Vonovia Ruhrstadion plays host to a lopsided Bundesliga encounter between Bochum and Borussia Dortmund.

Out-of-sorts Bochum are in a tough spot, having gone four Bundesliga matches without a win (D2, L2). They sit just two points above the relegation zone at the start of this round and are reeling from a devastating 5-1 loss at home to Wolfsburg, which marked the fourth time this season that they have lost by at least a four-goal margin. Bochum had been in good form at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion, securing three consecutive home wins at the end of the first half of the season and two more to kick off the second half. However, they have since lost four of their last five Bundesliga home outings (W1), including three multi-goal margin defeats. On that basis, ‘Die Unabsteigbaren’ may have to wait a while longer to post their first H2H home win since 2007 (D2, L3 since).

Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund capitalized on Bayern Munich’s 3-1 defeat at Mainz last weekend to move top of the Bundesliga table after a 4-0 demolition of Eintracht Frankfurt at home. But while that triumph extended Dortmund’s impressive home form to eight league wins, the visitors have been up the creek without a paddle on the road, going winless in their last five competitive away games (D2, L3), all of which saw them concede 2+ goals, including a gut-wrenching 3-3 draw at Stuttgart on their most recent league travel. Edin Terzic’s defense appears to be a weak link, yet his attack knows no limits, with Dortmund netting at least two goals in six of their seven Bundesliga away games in 2023.
