Two of the out-of-form teams in the Bundesliga go head-to-head at the Volkswagen, as Wolfsburg and Bochum clash on Saturday afternoon.
Wolfsburg is looking over their shoulders at the league's bottom threeThe Wolves have been sucked into the Bundesliga’s battle for survival. Ralph Hasenhuttl’s team are now just two points clear of the relegation play-off spot.
Wolfsburg lost 3-0 at RB Leipzig last time out, meaning they have lost five of their last six outings in the German top-flight.
The key to the Wolves’ recent poor results has been conceding too many goals. They have conceded at least two goals in six of their last seven matches in the Bundesliga.
Wolfsburg’s recent record at the Volkswagen Arena is woeful, as they are winless in their last eight games on home soil, having picked up three draws and suffered five defeats.
The Wolves have been poor defensively on home soil lately, conceding at least two goals in four of their last five home games.
Bochum’s poor recent run extended against HeidenheimThe visitors are in 15th place in the table, just a point outside the league's bottom three.
A 1-1 home draw against Heidenheim last time out means that Bochum hasn’t won in seven games, picking up just two draws and having suffered five defeats.
Bochum’s main issue of late in the German top flight has been conceding too many goals. They have conceded at least two goals in seven of their last eight outings.
The visitors have been in poor away form in the German top-flight. On their travels, they are winless in their last eight Bundesliga games, having picked up just two draws and suffered six defeats.
What am I backing?Both teams have been in poor form lately. I see this game being relatively even, so the bet I am backing is the draw.
