The upcoming Bundesliga clash between Bochum and Mainz is crucial for both teams as they currently find themselves in the automatic relegation spots without a win so far this season.

Bochum, with 4 points, showed promise in their last game against Freiburg as Paciencia scored an early goal in the 15th minute. However, Freiburg made a comeback in the first half, resulting in a 2-1 loss for Bochum.

Mainz, on the other hand, has only accumulated 2 points so far. Their recent performance against Bayern Munich, where they lost 1-3, was not surprising given the strength of the opposition. Anthony Caci was the player who managed to score the only goal for Mainz in that match.

Considering the almost identical struggles and poor performances of both teams, this game holds significant importance for them to secure points and avoid falling further behind. Given their current form and challenges, a draw seems a likely outcome for this fixture.

VfL BOCHUM have scored 3 goals and conceded 13 goals in their last 5 games.
