- Competition: German Bundesliga
- Date: 15th January, 2025
- Kick-off: 18:30 CET
- Venue: Vonovia Ruhrstadion
Bochum will be looking to record their third win in the last four Bundesliga games on Wednesday evening when they welcome fellow relegation candidates St. Pauli to the Vonovia Ruhrstadion.
The home side are bottom of the table with just eight points from their first 16 games and only picked up their first two wins just before the Christmas break. The first was a 2-0 win against Union Berlin, followed a week later by Bochum securing their second win of the season with a 2-0 victory at home to Heidenheim. However, this does not change the fact that they are the third-worst attacking team in the league (14 goals scored) and also the second-worst in terms of goals conceded (36 goals conceded).
St. Pauli are not doing much better than their opponents on Wednesday: they have only won one of their last four Bundesliga matches. They are currently just one point above the relegation play-off zone and are therefore going into this game with the hope of moving up the table with a possible win.
Bochum vs St.Pauli Betting Tips: Under 2.5 Goals Total
Both teams are among the worst teams in the Bundesliga in terms of goals scoring, so a low-scoring game is to be expected on Wednesday. Bochum in particular have been involved in some low-scoring games of late, scoring fewer than 2.5 goals in their last seven league games. St. Pauli have also seen less than 2.5 goals in their last three Bundesliga games, so a bet on under 2.5 goals seems plausible.
