Bochum vs Union Berlin Betting Tips - BTTS
A competitive and likely high-scoring contest seems likely with both teams scoring goals and conceding at a consistent rate this season.
Separated by just three points, both teams find themselves in the bottom half of the division and will be keen to pick up a massive victory this weekend.
Hosts Bochum come into this fixture having seen BTTS in a high proportion of their league games played this season. At home, Bochum have seen both teams score in all six Bundesliga encounters this season. In fact, the hosts have seen BTTS in all but one of their last 11 home Bundesliga games since March.
More recently, Bochum have seen the same outcome in six of their seven most recent league matches.
Likewise, Union are another consistent performer in the BTTS market. After a 3:2 midweek defeat against Real Madrid, the Iron Ones have seen both teams score in five of their last six matches across all competitions.
A quick-check of the H2H record also reveals that four of the last five meetings between these sides saw both teams net including Bochum´s 2:1 win at this venue in last season´s corresponding fixture.
While Union have been poor on the road this season, the visitors seem to be improving under new boss Nenad Bjelica, and the visitors will make this a competitive match.
I´m taking BTTS while we can also expect over 2.5 goals scored in a likely entertaining encounter on Saturday.
