This game can be called „West-Derby“, both teams are not far away from each other. Therefore many fans from Bochum are expected and the atmosphere is a hot one. On the pitch it is a bit different, Düsseldorf looking to close the gap from 6 Points to the promotion places while Bochum must look more behind them with only seven Points advantage to the red zone.
Under the week and before the game there are a lot of rumors with names for the Head Coach position in Düsseldorf. Nevertheless Aksoy is on the bench second time today and he has the whole responsibility of the team. Of course with the next win he can make some advertising but it is absolutely clear that the management expect a solution with a new man on the sideline. He is only the man for some weeks now till they find the right one. The focus is clear on the match against Bochum and the starting lineup remains maybe unchanged to the last game in Heidenheim. It is as allways “Never change a winning team”. For this reason captain Bodzek is only on bench again on the other side weak playing Liendl has a very good performance in Heidenheim and gave the trust on him back although he was a big doubt in starting lineup after his bad performances lately. Additional Benshop has a big advantage in attack compared to the other mates like Pohjanpalo and Hoffer where both are searching for their form.
The situation is getting better and better in Bochum above all their injury list is not so long as some weeks ago. With Fabian, Tasaka and Gregoritsch are three important players back in team training and give Coach Verbeek some more options and alternatives on some positions. Despite the 3 goals against them Coach Verbeek sees no reason for changes there. Therefore Fabian is no option for the starting lineup as his team mate Cacutalua who made his job very well. On the other side are Tasaka and Gregoritsch options for the starting lineup because with Eisfeld it is a central guy out with suspension who was in great for at least. If he thinks about them the next inform player Terrazzino move into the middle and allow one of them to play on the wing. On the other side it is not sure if he does this as Terrazzino showed a lot of good actions on the wing and he want to let him play again there and give Sestak a new opportunity in the middle to replace Eisfeld.
Both teams meet each other 47 times and the record speaks clear for Bochum with 18-17-12. In Düsseldorf it is a bit different because Düsseldorf won 9, draw 8 and lose 6. The last two meetings could Düsseldorf win at home but it was always a close one.
Overall this can be a very hot encounter and I am expecting a close one too. Düsseldorf won the last game but it was not all well, only the result. They had a lot of problems in defensive and also the offensive was not always ahead of their actions. Additional at home they are doing very hard and collected only 13 Points in their arena so far. On the other side has Bochum a good run above all on the road they are far better as in their home matches. Away from home they are hard to beat and with the new style of play installed from Coach Verbeek they are always able to overcome the opponent with their offensive style of play. The players are doing well and from match to match it is getting better. I take the team from Bochum here and with HC +0,5 I see a very good chance to win this one.
Recommend Bet: VfL Bochum AHC +0,5 @ 1,76 (3 Units)
