Bochum, in 18th position, is still in the relegation battle, although the team got much-needed points when they played Union Berlin. The team cannot afford to drop any further points, because there are just games remaining; losing more games will be very detrimental to Bochum. Playing against big teams must result in a minimum of a draw, but playing against middle and lower positioned teams must be a win to stay in the league.
This is more than just talk, and the team will be tested when they play Werder Bremen,n who has a good home record. One way of describing Bochum this season is inconsistency and defensive vulnerabilities, and this is more evident when the team plays away. One major concern for Bochum is how the team collapses in the second half of games. To avoid relegation, Bochum need to win about three games, and the team will be safe. Will this be possible?
Bochum: Lineup
Bochum's coach will still have some selection dilemmas going into this all-important away game against Werder as several key players are suspended or injured. This means the coach will have to reshuffle his starting 11. As Bochum aim to push up the table, the pressure is on for the team to win.
Bochum will also stick to the familiar 4-2-3-1 formation, though there will be a change in personalities. With Ordets suspended, Masovic and Passlack could be called to pair at the centre of the field, while Asano and Antwi-Adjei will be called on to provide width on the flanks. Midfield maestro Stöger will be influential in orchestrating play from midfield, and Hofmann will once again lead the line.
🔖 VfL Bochum 1848 starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Riemann – Gamboa, Masovic, Passlack, Wittek – Losilla, Stöger – Asano, Osterhage, Antwi-Adjei – Hofmann
⛔️ Out: I. Ordets (red card), M. Bero (red card), K. Miyoshi (injury)

Union Berlin: form and statistics
Union Berlin's season has seen inconsistent results from the beginning but the team has stringed together a series of impressive wins to e=scaped relegation. Union Berlin has won 5 games and lost 12 in 24 Bundesliga games played. A critical look at their goals statistics at home shows that Union Berlin scores 0.9 on average and concedes 1.7 goals, which is not encouraging for a club that was flying high in the Bundesliga some seasons ago. However, the team has recently shown some class by picking up wins against teams like Freiburg and Wolfsburg and drawing against the current league leaders.
The inconsistent result for Union Berlin indicates that a close game is expected.
Union Berlin: Lineup
Union Berlin will still play the 3-5-2 formation to provide cover for defence and options on the flanks when attacking. Kevin Volland and Benedict Hollerbach have shown some iota of chemistry in recent games, and it will be interesting to see if that partnership can yield some goals. Juranović, Jeong Wooyeong, and Kemlein are all unavailable, and this will leave Steffen Baumgart some headaches as he needs to find the best mix especially in midfield and wing-back.
Union still has experienced players, especially in midfield and defence to rely on.
🔖 Union Berlin probable starting lineup (3-5-2)
Rønnow – Doekhi, Knoche, Leite – Trimmel, Haberer, Khedira, Tousart, Roussillon – Volland, Hollerbach
⛔️ Out: J. Juranović (injured), Jeong Wooyeong (injured), A. Kemlein (injured)
👤 Head coach:Steffen Baumgart
