Bochum vs Freiburg Prediction and Betting Tips | March 10th 2024
Fresh off the back of an impressive victory over West Ham United in the Europa League, Freiburg visit the Vonovia Ruhrstadion to face Bochum in round 25 of the German Bundesliga on Sunday.
Having lost the last five meetings between the sides, Thomas Letsch’s men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the visitors and end their two-game losing run.
Bochum were left empty-handed for the second consecutive game as they suffered a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Leipzig last Saturday.
Prior to that, Letsch’s side saw their three-game unbeaten run come to an end on February 24 courtesy of a 5-2 loss against Borussia Monchengladbach at Borussia Park.
With 25 points from 24 matches, Bochum are currently 15th in the Bundesliga table, eight points above the relegation playoff spot.
Michael Gregoritsch grabbed the headlines at Europa Park Stadion as he netted in the 81st minute to hand Freiburg a 1-0 win over West Ham in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 clash in mid-week.
Manager Christian Streich will hope that result can serve as a springboard for a fine run of form as the Breisgau-Brasilianer turn their attention to the Bundesliga, where they have failed to win their last six matches.
With 30 points from 24 matches, Freiburg are currently ninth in the league table, level on points with eighth-placed Werder Bremen.
