Bochum vs Darmstadt Match Preview

Bochum is ranked at 4th place with 23 points and comes after three wins and two losses over the last five matches. Their form has been pretty decent considering they sit only one point behind the promotion zone and also secured a ticket for the 1/8 stage of the DFB Pokal against a team like Mainz that plays in the Bundesliga.

They have scored 24 goals so far having one of the best offensive sides in the league and in the last five matches they scored 12 goals averaging more than two goals per game. They found the back of the net at least once in four occasions failing to score only in the loss against Hannover. At home their form has been almost perfect as they won four of the last five games while scoring a total of 13 goals.

Darmstadt, on the other hand, is ranked at 10th place with 18 points and comes in the same form as their rivals after three wins and two losses over the last five matches. But for them the good news is that they now sit seven points above the relegation zone after their recent two wins, including a surprising 0-4 win on the road against a superior team like Greuther Furth.

With 25 goals scored until now they are also showing a very good offensive side, averaging almost two goals per game. In the last five matches they scored a total of 13 goals managing to find the back of the net in each match. Playing on the road has not been a problem for them with 16 goals scored in seven games so far.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. Bochum aims for all three points as they are pushing towards the top three and need to find consistency in their results. Zoller scored three goals in the last five matches for them. Darmstadt has been playing quite an offensive football as in fact they had over 2.5 goals in 10 out of 13 games. I fancy them to score a goal here despite the final result.
