THE PREDICTION
Three defeats in four games have seen Hannover slip down the table, including their first home league reverse of 2020 a few weeks ago. Kenan Kocak’s side have also been struggling for goals lately, finding the net just twice in their last five outings. They have been solid enough at the other end, though, recording three clean sheets at the HDI-Arena this term. As for Bochum, only the top two have conceded fewer goals at this stage, and they benefit from having a settled back four which has remained largely unchanged in recent months. This is unlikely to be a goal fest, so consider under 2.5 goals.
