Bochum has maintained a 50% win rate in the last 10 matches, demonstrating their ability to compete and win against various opponents.
Bochum has kept a clean sheet in 4 out of 10 matches, reflecting stable defensive organization, especially when facing strong teams.
Some key players such as Timo Horn (goalkeeper), Karol Mets, Maximilian Wittek (defender), Koji Miyoshi (midfielder), and Philipp Hofmann (forward) are regularly playing and have high accumulated statistics, playing a key role in important matches.

Neutral30%
Bochum is in 6th place on the Bundesliga 2 table after 4 matches played, with 6 points and a goal difference of 0, showing a balance between attack and defense.
The team's overall performance is not too outstanding but also not too bad, with 2 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws in the last 4 matches.
Bochum has only used the 4-2-3-1 formation in their last 4 matches, creating stability in their playstyle but lacking variability in the attacking area.
The average goal-scoring rate is 1.5 goals per game, but only 25% of games exceed 1.5 goals per game, showing a balanced but not overly impressive performance.
Negative30%
Bochum received a total of 21 yellow cards in the last 10 matches (an average of 2.1 cards per game), with 3 matches having at least 3 yellow cards, indicating a lack of discipline and a tendency to make mistakes during the matches.
The team's defense conceded 7 goals in 10 matches (an average of 0.7 goals per match), especially lacking in confidence when facing strong teams (losing 0-1 to Hertha Berlin and 0-2 to Werder Bremen)
Bochum lacks stability in game control, as evidenced by the strong fluctuations in the number of corner kicks (ranging from 0 to 7 per game) depending on the opponent and match situation.
Bochum's reserve team is not of sufficient quality to compensate for the shortage, especially in attack, making the goal-scoring ability entirely dependent on Philipp Hofmann and Koji Miyoshi.
The loss of players like Jean-Manuel Mbom (out for 4 matches due to injury) reduces the team's ability to control the midfield, while the replacement options are not strong enough to ensure consistency in the playing style.
SpVgg Greuther FürthPositive35%
Greuther Furth is currently experiencing a temporary surge in form with a five-match winning streak, including impressive victories against strong opponents such as Energie Cottbus (4-3), Freiburg (3-0), and Paris (1-0) in friendly matches, demonstrating explosive attacking capabilities against weaker opponents.
Midfielder Felix Klaus is currently in outstanding form with 5 goals in his last 4 matches, along with 14 shots on target and 4 successful dribbles, being a key pillar in the 4-4-2 formation.
Greuther Furth maintains good match discipline with only 7 yellow cards in 10 games, no red cards, showing stability in play and the ability to control situations
Neutral30%
Greuther Furth has a 60% win rate (6 wins, 1 draw, 3 losses) in their last 10 matches, showing a balance in results, although their performance still depends on the opponent and the specific match.
The team kept a clean sheet in 3 out of 10 matches, with an average of 4.3 corners per game, reflecting stability in some matches but not enough to prove comprehensive defensive ability.
The 4-4-2 formation is commonly used, but Greuther Furth also tends to experiment with the 5-3-2 formation in a match, showing moderate tactical flexibility.
Negative35%
Greuther Furth is going through a mixed phase with poor defensive performance, conceding 14 goals (an average of 1.4 goals per game) in 10 matches, including two heavy defeats (0-1 against Heidenheim, 2-4 against Nurnberg) and a 1-2 loss to Bochum in the DFB Pokal, highlighting a lack of consistency in crucial matches.
