Aue vs Bochum Prediction & Betting tips
If the relegation battle is based on the 40-point myth, the teams can breathe a sigh of relief in the top half of the 2nd Bundesliga table. This includes teams such as Erzgebirge Aue (9th) and VfL Bochum (6th), both of which have already passed the 40-point mark. On the 32nd matchday of the 2nd Bundesliga, the two clubs will now meet in Aue.
As the odds comparison of the betting base shows, there are no clear favorites at Aue against Bochum according to odds. A prediction of a winner is difficult to determine in any case given the insignificant end-of-season spurt of both teams. But the Bochumers undoubtedly have the better shape.
Most recently, VfL remained unbeaten for nine games in a row. However, promotion can no longer be achieved with three games remaining and ten points behind a relegation place. The Bochumers are nevertheless striving for a conciliatory end of the season and want to further expand the current series. It remains to be seen whether VfL will also win a point in Aue.
Erzgebirge Aue is one of the strongest teams in the 2nd Bundesliga. Further bets and analyzes for the 32nd matchday of the 2nd Bundesliga can be found in the betting base section 2nd Bundesliga Tips.
Aue:
The purple and white can already plan for the next season in the 2nd Bundesliga. With 41 points, the relegation of Erzgebirge Aue with three games remaining is probably no longer at risk. After all, the ominous 40-point mark was cracked to stay in the class. The penultimate home game of the current season is now on Wednesday evening for Aue.
In the 15 home games of the current season, the purple and whites had a strong home record of 10-3-2, making Erzgebirge Aue one of the strongest teams in the 2nd Bundesliga. Surprisingly, there were two home defeats for Erzgebirge Aue in the last five home games against Darmstadt (1: 3) and Holstein Kiel (1: 2).
On average, Dirk Schuster’s team scored almost two goals per home game. This season, only in the home games against Stuttgart (0: 0) and Bielefeld (0: 0) failed to score the purple and whites. It is quite possible that this offensive trend will also continue at home against Bochum.
Since the 2nd Bundesliga started again, Erzgebirge Aue have conceded ten goals in their last six games. Only in the home game against the KSC (1-0) was the white vest kept. Anyway, the Erzgebirge with 44 goals conceded not exactly the best defense of the 2nd Bundesliga. Therefore, a goal against the offensive Bochum seems almost preprogrammed.
Dirk Schuster will have three losses at the penultimate home game of the current season, including Jacob Rasmussen, the backbone of the central defense. In addition, the use of regular goalkeeper and captain Martin Männel is questionable. The 32-year-old had injured his shoulder and is in danger of falling out. Not exactly the best prerequisites, considering how fragile the defense of the Erzgebirge has been since the restart.
Bochum:
VfL Bochum as a late bloomer this season has no chance of promotion to the Bundesliga. Nevertheless, the Bochumers want to take the latest swing with them until the end of the season and continue the series of nine games without defeat. Most recently, VfL took victories over Osnabrück (2: 0) and the relegated Kiezkickers from St. Pauli (2: 0).
VfL Bochum’s otherwise fragile defense has not conceded a goal in six of the last seven games. In four of the recent five matches involving Bochum, there were no more than two goals in the game. Nevertheless, in the upcoming duel between Aue vs. Bochum recommend a tip on a scoring goal and refer to the previous season statistics.
Three game days before the end of the season, the Bochumers have the potential to deliver an offensive fireworks display to the Erzgebirge mountains. After all, the home team lack the support in central defense.
VfL coach Thomas Reis will continue to have to do without his goalkeeper on Wednesday evening. Silvere Ganvoula is healing his injury and is also missing from the away game in Aue. In addition, rice has to do without Zoller, Blum, Decarli and Bapoh. Sebastian Maier and Danilo Soares, on the other hand, are about to make a comeback and are in the VfL squad on Wednesday.
It is still uncertain which changes Reis will make after the exhausting game plan. It is quite possible that players like Eisfeld, Janelt and Weiland – most recently on the bench – will move into the starting eleven this time.
