Bochum Team News

Only a miracle saved Bochum from relegation last season. Now, things are not looking any better at the start of the new season. Thomas Letsch’s side suffered a 5-0 defeat at Stuttgart last week. It was a match between two completely different teams. Stuttgart seemed dominant and had 30 attempts on goal, five of which ended up in Bochum’s net.

On the other side, Bochum was not seen on the field. Only one ball ended up in the frame of the goal, but there was no goal. Bochum demonstrated a fragile defense and cut off the attack from the rest of the team. Bochum lost to Arminia in the first round of the DFB-Pokal earlier this month. The result was 2:2, but they were defeated after a penalty. Bochum lost 19 of their 34 league matches last season and is facing a similar fate this season.

Dortmund Team News

Dortmund has undoubtedly started a new campaign. Schott Mainz fell first in the competition for the DFB Cup. The result in the end was 6:1, although it was 1:1 until the 35th minute. When the Millionaires managed to break through the home team’s defense, the goals began to line up like on a tape.Dortmund had another win over FC Koln last weekend. Borussia took all three points, but it was not easy at all. Donyell Malen scored the only goal in the 88th minute.

The Dortmund team also had a bit of luck because the guests quickly attacked their net.Last year, Dortmund gave the title to Bayern in the previous round, when they held everything in their hands. Such a shock is hard to fade, and the question is how BVB will play this season. They have kept most of the squad, and with a few reinforcements, they may be able to end their run of second place in the Bundesliga.
