Bochum vs Greuther Furth Prediction & Betting tips
Bochum – Fürth, both clubs have started ambitious, but so far belong to the disappointments. VfL Bochum has already said goodbye to the season’s goal promotion and, with just three points ahead of relegation place 16, has to look down instead. The SpVgg Greuther Fürth wanted to get involved, at least in the upper half of the table, as a penultimate but is even two points behind 16th place.
After 20 matches, the balance between the two clubs with six wins and eight draws is balanced. In Bochum, however, Fürth has four statistics and four draws and only two VfL home victories.
While Fürth could only win one point from seven away games, Bochum won at least three out of six home games. In their own stadium but also speaks the greater squad quality for the blue-white.
Bochum :
VfL Bochum did not make a good start under coach Ismail Atalan, who was only signed two weeks before the start of the season, with only one point from three games, but then against Dynamo Dresden (3: 2) and SV Darmstadt 98 (2: 1 ) won twice in a row. However, the VfL could not stabilize in the episode, but lost the following games against 1 FC Heidenheim (1: 2) and 1 FC Nuremberg (1: 3) and after a 2-0 against FC Ingolstadt also Holstein Kiel (0: 3), which cost Coach Atalan again the job. Interim coach Jens Rasiejewski, who remains in office until at least the winter, caught a perfect debut with a 2-0 home victory against SV Sandhausen, but has since remained four times without a win. In Eintracht Braunschweig (0: 1) and in the DFB Cup at SC Paderborn (0: 2) was initially lost twice and then there were two goalless draws against Fortuna Dusseldorf and 1 FC Kaiserslautern. Last week, VfL took advantage of three friendly matches – with lights and shadows against Borussia Dortmund (2-4), Sportfreunde Westenfeld (18-0) and Helmond Sport (0-0).
While Kevin Stöger is again suspended and Timo Perthel and Tim Hoogland are not alternatives due to injury, Robbie Kruse, who is missing before the international break, but has traveled to the Australian national team, is hoping for action.
Probable lineup: Riemann – Gyamerah, Fabian, Bastians, Danilo – Hemmerich, Losilla, Icefield, Kruse – Hinterseer, Diamantakos
Greuther Furth:
The SpVgg Greuther Fürth has at the beginning of the season only in the DFB Cup at SV Morlautern (5: 0) recorded a sense of achievement, but the first four league games but all lost, after which coach Janos Radoki had to go. After a 1-1 draw at Dynamo Dresden under interim coach Mirko Dickhaut, the new head coach Damir Buric performed well with a 3-1 win over Fortuna Dusseldorf, but confirmed the SpVgg the upswing in the episode in three defeats in a row at Eintracht Braunschweig (0 : 3), against 1. FC Nürnberg (1: 3) and 1. FC Kaiserslautern (0: 3) not. Although a 2-1 win over Erzgebirge Aue served as a reassurance after that, promptly two defeats followed again at 1. FC Union Berlin (1-3) and in the DFB Cup against FC Ingolstadt (1-3). For the SV Sandhausen (2: 1) three points were brought in, before the international break the important basement duel at SSV Jahn Regensburg lost 2: 3.
After the weak performance in Regensburg, several changes are conceivable, the many failures make the alternatives rather low. Sercan Sararer, Mathis Bolly, Balazs Megyeri and Nik Omladic are almost certain. Daniel Steininger, Julian Green, Levent Aycicek and Roberto Hilbert are more or less question marks.
Probable lineup: Burchert – Hilbert, Maloca, Caligiuri, Wittek – Magyar – Cigerci, Pinter, Sontheimer – Narey, room
