THE PREDICTION

Defeat for Greuther Furth last time out away at Koln extended their losing run to five games and sees them firmly rooted to the bottom of the table with just a single point to their name after eight league fixtures. If ever there was a fixture to turn things around, it would have to be this one against 17th-placed Bochum who sit just three points above them in the table. Greuther will know that a win here by two clear goals would take them above their opponents, so the motivation will certainly be there for them to attack Bochum whenever possible. However, this may only serve to expose their defensive frailties that have seen Greuther concede 19 Bundesliga goals already this season, the second-highest amount of the 18 teams in the German top flight. What this does potentially mean is that this particular contest should see some goals and backing over 2.5 of them to be scored here may well prove to be the smart play.
