Regensburg vs Bochum Prediction & Betting tips
Regensburg – Bochum, both clubs are only two points, but six places apart, which makes clear the narrowness in the 2nd Bundesliga. In the formative SSV Jahn Regensburg, the view is therefore still in seventh place and already 22 points down. Just as with VfL Bochum, who, standing in 13th position, has long since said farewell to the lofty aspirations of the summer.
Only three times have both clubs met each other so far. After Regensburg in the first round of the DFB Cup in the first round of the DFB Cup second-league conquered as Bundesliga side VfL 2-1 out of the competition, there were two away wins in 2012/13 in the second league. First Bochum won 1-0 in Regensburg, then to lose at home with 0: 2.
Regensburg :
Jahn Regensburg has lost the first two games, but then celebrated with a 3-1 in the DFB Cup against SV Darmstadt 98 (3: 1) and in the derby at FC Ingolstadt (4: 2) first successes. In the episode, it continued with six points from the following five games mixed, before it at SV Sandhausen (0: 2), against 1 FC Union Berlin (0: 2) and Erzgebirge Aue (0: 1) and in the DFB Cup against 1. FC Heidenheim (2: 5) four defeats in a row sat on the crisis sentiment arose. But then the Jahn freed himself from this crisis in a very impressive way. With the 1. FC Kaiserslautern (3: 1) and the SpVgg Greuther Fürth (3: 2) two direct competitors in the table cellar at home were defeated and then at FC St. Pauli (2: 2) at least scored. Most recently, coach Achim Beierlorzer’s side have come away with two wins against MSV Duisburg (4-0) and SV Darmstadt 98 (1-0).
With Andreas Geipl Regensburg had to replace already in Darmstadt a regular force, where with Sargis Adamyan another performer had to be replaced beaten. While Geipl is certainly missing against Bochum, Adamyan could be available. Unlike the long-term injured Oliver Hein and Sven Kopp (hamstring).
Probable lineup: Pentke – Saller, Nachreiner, Knoll, Nandzik – Gimber, Lais – Proud, Adamyan – Grüttner, Nietfeld
Bochum :
The VfL Bochum did not have a good start, just because of the short-term change of coach before the first matchday, but with a total of seven points from five games, it was still pretty decent. Because of the following four encounters three were lost, coach Ismail Atalan but had to leave quickly and was inherited by Jens Rasiejewski, who ordered as interim coach until winter break with a 2-0 against SV Sandhausen celebrated a perfect debut. Thereafter, however, lost the VfL Eintracht Braunschweig (0: 1) and the DFB Cup at SC Paderborn (0: 2) twice in a row and then came against Fortuna Dusseldorf (0: 0), at 1 FC Kaiserslautern (0: 0 ), against SpVgg Greuther Fürth (1: 1) and Erzgebirge Aue (1: 1) four times in a row not a draw beyond.
Not excluded that coach Rasiejewski again gives the same starter confidence. If Robbie Kruse overcomes his abdominal muscle problems in time, the Australian is a hot candidate instead of Sidney Sam or Johannes Wurtz. Manuel Riemann and Timo Perthel are certainly missing again.
Probable lineup: Dornebusch – Gyamerah, Losilla, Bastian – Celozzi, Janelt, Danilo – Sam, Stoeger, Hinterseer – Wurtz
