Bochum and Frankfurt Face-Off: Goals Expected in Bundesliga Duel
Key Stats
– Frankfurt are on a nine-match unbeaten streak across competitions.
– Takuma Asano is Bochum’s top scorer this season with two goals in three matches.
The famed Vonovia Ruhrstadion will host a riveting Bundesliga encounter between Bochum and Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday, a fixture that promises sparks and exhilarating football.
Bochum’s Slow Start
Bochum have had a somewhat sluggish beginning to their campaign. Sitting in the 13th position, they have amassed a meagre two points from three outings. Their previous fixture saw them claw back to a 2-2 draw against Augsburg, with the vibrant Takuma Asano netting twice to ensure a share of the spoils. But their league position doesn’t convey the entire story.

They’re unbeaten in their last four home Bundesliga matches. However, a worrying statistic is their solitary win from the previous ten games across all competitions.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s Flying Start under Toppmoller
Frankfurt, contrastingly, have adapted well under the stewardship of manager Dino Toppmoller. Notably, they have earned a place in the UEFA Europa Conference League this season. A recent 1-1 stalemate against Koln saw the deadline-day recruit, Niels Nkounkou, making an impact from the bench, equalising late into the game. They are positioned 10th, having garnered five out of a possible nine points.
Historical Context & Vital Stats
Delving into the history between the two sides, there have been 71 previous encounters. Bochum slightly lags behind with 26 wins to Frankfurt’s 29. The last time they locked horns, the spoils were shared with a 1-1 draw. Frankfurt’s defence, although boasting the joint-best defensive record this season, has struggled against Bochum in recent times, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last four encounters.
Bochum’s defence has been porous, conceding a whopping eight goals from three games, positioning them 16/18 based on the BettingTips4You Expert Rating. Conversely, Frankfurt have been efficient at the back, letting in only two goals. Their recent form is impressive, enjoying a nine-match unbeaten streak, which includes five wins.
Star Performers
Bochum’s hopes might largely hinge on Takuma Asano, who holds an impressive BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.57. Meanwhile, Frankfurt boasts talent like Mario Götze, with a rating of 7.27, and the recently impactful Niels Nkounkou.
Predictions
- Both Teams to Score: Given both teams’ recent scoring record and their previous head-to-head meetings, it’s highly likely that both nets will ripple. This prediction aligns well with the fact that Bochum and Frankfurt both scored during their last Bundesliga clash, and both teams have a consistent scoring record in recent games.
- Correct Score Prediction: Given the statistics and the attacking prowess on display, a 2-2 draw seems a plausible outcome.
- Goalscorer Prediction: Takuma Asano, having already netted twice this season and being Bochum’s top performer, is our pick to score during the game. For Frankfurt, the spotlight might be on Niels Nkounkou, who opened his account in the previous game.
