Team News

Bochum
Mainz
  • Philipp Hofmann went off early last week with broken ribs and is ruled out.
  • Ibrahima Sissoko is available after suspension and will likely displace Mats Pannewig or veteran Anthony Losilla in midfield.
  • But barring late injuries, boss Dieter Hecking will likely have to keep faith with the bulk of the side that has fallen off a cliff since shocking Bayern in March.
  • Key defender Dominik Kohr has ligament damage and is ruled out. Moritz Jenz is ruled out following an operation on his nose.
  • Danny da Costa is also struggling with a thigh problem, so the wily Stefan Bell is likely to come back into defence after a long absence.
  • Paul Nebel is available after suspension, while Phillipp Mwene is nearing a return from a muscle tear.

Prediction

  • Both sides remain winless in seven games, but Mainz still sit in seventh with realistic hopes of securing European football.
  • After five straight losses, Bochum have drawn their last two, but are rooted to the bottom of the table with faint hopes of staying up.
  • Mainz's prospects for a positive result will be lifted if star man Jonathan Burkardt is fully fit. Burkhardt has scored Mainz's last four goals against Bochum.
  • Four points from the relegation play-off place, Bochum must win to retain any hope of staying in the top flight.
  • Mainz have the fourth best defensive record behind the top two and St. Pauli, shipping just 40 goals.
  • The reverse fixture finished 2-0 in Mainz's favour, and we back M05 to do the double and send Dieter Hecking's side down.
