THE PREDICTION
Bochum are on the verge of returning to the Bundesliga after 11 years away following their 5-1 thrashing of Jahn Regensburg last Sunday. That was the league leaders’ fifth win in seven games but their opponents here are also in decent form - or at least were before their 5-2 loss at Hamburger SV last weekend, their first defeat in eight games. Bochum have won 10 and lost just one of the 15 encounters between these two teams in the second tier and should get the job done, but it would be understandable if they have a few jitters so Nurnberg, who have failed to score in just one of their last 13 league matches, can certainly nick a goal if not any points.
