The Leipzig team will challenge the Bochum team in a Matchday 7 German Bundesliga in Red Bull Arena Stadium, Leipzig on Saturday, October 07, 2023. For streaming coverage of Leipzig vs Bochum, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Leipzig are at the top of their form this season, even though they just lost to Man City in the Champions League. They have lost only once in their last nine matches in all competitions, with seven wins and one draw. Moreover, Leipzig is also unbeaten in the last nine home matches, with eight wins. Only Bayern can hold Leipzig to a draw at the Red Bull Arena.
Meanwhile, Bochum is actually sinking into crisis because they have not won at all this season. They have lost four times and drawn three times, including one defeat on penalties in the German National Cup. Thomas Letsch’s team also has no advantage as a visiting team because they have not won in their last eight away matches, with five draws and three defeats.
Bochum also has to deal with injury problems affecting many important players such as Jordi Osei-Tutu, Michael Esser, Mohammed Tolba, Moritz-Broni Kwarteng, Matus Bero and Lys Mousset. Meanwhile, Leipzig only lost Benjamin Henrichs, Dani Olmo, El Chadaille Bitshiabu and Willi Orban. With a stronger and deeper squad, Leipzig will have no problem beating Bochum.
The history of the meetings also shows a big difference between the two teams. Leipzig has won all five times hosting Bochum last time in all competitions. The last time Bochum visited the Bundesliga, they lost to Bayern with a score of 7-0. And, in just the last three away matches in the Bundesliga this new season, Bochum has conceded 14 goals and only scored two goals.
Therefore, it is not surprising that several football sites predict that Leipzig will completely dominate Bochum from start to finish and will easily beat the visiting team with a landslide score.
