St. Pauli vs Bochum Prediction & Betting tips
St. Pauli – Bochum, both teams wanted to look up this season, but after the first round the situation is different. The FC St. Pauli occupies a completely disappointing 15th place, but also the ninth place of VfL Bochum reads in the face of just two points more than St. Pauli in the first moment better than he is.
There have been 30 encounters between the two clubs, of which St. Pauli eleven could win and thus with twelve draws and seven defeats can show the better record. At home, St. Pauli won seven out of 15 games in six draws and two defeats.
St. Pauli :
With a 1-0 victory in the first leg in Bochum and a 2-2 then against Dynamo Dresden FC St. Pauli has made a decent start, this can only conditionally confirm. 16 points after nine games and the Cup-out at SC Paderborn were already a measured by the claims rather disappointing interim balance, which has since deteriorated significantly. Because since the 2-0 victory on October 1 at Eintracht Braunschweig succeeded no more victory. After three draws against 1. FC Kaiserslautern, SV Sandhausen and Erzgebirge Aue (1-1 each), St. Pauli lost 1-1 at 1 FC Union Berlin and then came against Jahn Regensburg not a 2-2 out. When subsequently was clearly lost twice at SpVgg Greuther Fürth (0: 4) and Arminia Bielefeld (0: 5), had to go coach Olaf Janßen. However, the successor Markus Kauczinski did not go according to plan with the 2: 2 against MSV Duisburg.
The already long list of failures with the injured Christopher Buchtmann, Mats Möller Daehli, Philipp Ziereis, Marc Horn shoe, Ryo Miyaichi, Clemens Schoppenhauer and Richard Neudecker was extended by the unnecessary dismissal of the now suspended Aziz Bouhaddouz again.
Probable lineup: Himmelmann – Zander, Sobiech, Avevor, Buballa – Nehrig, Flum – Dudziak, Cenk Sahin, Sobota – Allagui
Bochum :
After shortly before the start of the season, the change of coach from Gertjan Verbeek to Ismail Atalan had the latter already after nine matchdays already go again. Ten points from these nine games were not enough for the VfL responsible, who instead used the previous U19 coach as an interim coach with Jens Rasiejewski, who then gave him a head coaching contract until 2019 last week. Rasiejewski did well with a 2-0 home win against SV Sandhausen, but then remained without a win six times in a row. In Eintracht Braunschweig (0: 1) and in the DFB Cup at SC Paderborn (0: 2) were followed by two wins on the victory, before the blue-white against Fortuna Dusseldorf (0: 0), at 1 FC Kaiserslautern (0: 0) 0) against which SpVgg Greuther Fürth (1: 1) and Erzgebirge Aue (1: 1) shared the points four times in a row. The past two matches against 1. FC Union Berlin (2-1) and SSV Jahn Regensburg (1-0) won Bochum again for this and is, viewed from another angle, now undefeated for six games.
After the second win in series there should be no changes. Manuel Riemann, Timo Perthel and probably also Maxim Leitsch are injured due to not available.
Probable lineup: Dornebusch – Gyamerah, Losilla, Bastians – Celozzi, Janelt, Danilo – Wurtz, Stoeger, Kruse – Hinterseer
