Our tip: Leverkusen – Bochum: Handicap Leverkusen -1.5

28.03.2025 20:30

At opposite ends of the table are Leverkusen and Bochum. The defending Bundesliga champion can close to three points behind leaders Bayern Munich, while the Ruhr side need points to save themselves.

Leverkusen brought an unfavourable match in Stuttgart to a winning end before the national break, with Patrik Schick scoring the decisive goal in the fourth minute of stoppage time to make it 4-3! Bayer thus ended a run of three consecutive defeats in all competitions and, after Bayern’s stumble against Union Berlin, maintained their title chances, six points behind the leaders. The Pharmacists now need to confirm the win to put pressure on the Bavarians, but both league defeats this season have come at home in a surprise manner.

Bochum last lost to Eintracht Frankfurt (1:3) and after the last six rounds have an even record (2-2-2), which has moved them into at least a barrage position. However, coach Dieter Hecking’s charges, who renewed their contract this week, cannot rest on their laurels as they have only a three-point lead at the bottom of the table and have not been beaten three times in a row (1-2-0).

What to bet on:

Leverkusen have dominated the previous four meetings in the BayArena and will be a strong favourite in the 27th round. The Pharmacists will win on handicap, with Patrik Schick again among the scorers.

Confidence:

8/10
