Bochum vs Freiburg Prediction
After gaining four points from two games prior to last weekend, Bochum fell to a 13th league defeat of the season, going down 3-0 to Borussia Monchengladbach. Whilst being at home may well give them a boost and Freiburg could be required to withstand some early pressure, the visitors are a stronger all-round side and are likely to take a firm grip on this encounter the longer it goes on.
Freiburg are coming off the back of three consecutive losses and the mental aspect of that could see them make things harder than they would hope for here. Whilst backing the visiting side should be seriously considered, only do so via the safety of the draw no bet market.
