Bochum vs Bayern Munich Prediction: Pressure mounting on Kompany?
Vincent Kompany is yet to get the best out of his Bayern Munich team since being appointed as head coach in the summer, particularly in Europe.
The club may be top of the Bundesliga but they have dropped points in a couple of matches against rivals, while their form in the Champions League is a cause for concern.
This weekend, they are big favourites to claim all three points away at Bochum.
Match Preview
Bochum Recent Form
Bochum have been the worst team in the Bundesliga this season and are rock bottom of the table after just one point gained from their opening seven matches.
They have lost seven out of eight, with their solitary point coming in a 2-2 home draw versus Kiel. In those seven games, they’ve conceded 17 goals.
Bochum Injury News
Bochum confirmed this week that Bernardo has suffered a setback in his recovery from a knee injury that has kept him sidelined since August, while Matus Bero is also injured after picking up a problem while on international duty with Slovakia.
Last Bochum Lineup
Here’s how Bochum lined up against Hoffenheim.
Bayern Recent Form
Bayern’s recent form has been disappointing as they’ve won just one of their last five games in all competitions.
In the Bundesliga, they have drawn versus Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt, though they did comfortably beat Stuttgart 4-1 last weekend.
In the Champions League, they have lost two in a row away at Aston Villa and then Barcelona, where they were defeated 4-1.
Bayern Injury News
Sacha Boey, Josip Stanisic, Aleksandar Pavlovic and Hiroki Ito remain out for Bayern, but the team was boosted by the return of Jamal Musiala against Barcelona after he struggled with a hip injury.
Last Bayern Lineup
Here’s how Bayern lined up against Barcelona.
Bochum – Player To Watch
Unfortunately for Bochum, their key player here will be goalkeeper Patrick Drewes. It will be down to his performance in the goal as to how low Bochum can keep the scoreline as he’ll be peppered with shots.
Bayern – Player To Watch
While some of his team-mates haven’t been at their best, Harry Kane continues to prove his worth. He scored against Barcelona during the week with a remarkably volleyed finish inside the box and has an outrageous 16 goals to his name already this season.
Bochum vs Bayern Munich – Prediction
Bayern need a palette-cleansing result after the humbling loss against Barcelona and they’ve been given a good chance to get one here against lowly Bochum, whom they should be beating with comfort.
Scoreline prediction – Bochum 0-4 Bayern
