LIPSIA – BOCHUM | Saturday 3:30pm
The change of bench in Leipzig seemed to have paid off: at least initially, the change between German and Rose had led to a shake-up with the victory against Borussia Dortmund and the excellent performance on the pitch against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Yes, against Ancelotti’s team had still come a defeat, just as another defeat came the following weekend in the league against Borussia Monchengladbach. In short, the path so far is also negative for the new coach. But he still has the chance to catch up.
Against Bochum, who are last in the table and who only found their first point of the season in the round before the break, there is little doubt that the hosts are the favourites. And that they will also take a win.
Leipzig-Bochum predictions
Victory without any problems for Leipzig, who need the three points and will obviously take them. A challenge, this one, that should unlock as early as the first forty-five minutes. And which could also see only one team score. What is certain, however, is that the hosts will win.
