Why it might land
  • The total goals line of 2.5 is priced at an attractive 1.65 for backers of goals in this fixture.
  • VfL Bochum enter this match having experienced mixed results with a recent run of two wins and three losses.
  • Arminia Bielefeld bring similarly inconsistent form into this contest after recording one win and two draws from five games.
Why it might not
  • Arminia Bielefeld showed they can struggle to find the back of the net during their recent losses in league action.
  • VfL Bochum put up inconsistent scoring numbers across their last five matches which adds doubt to an over bet.

Members analysis

Edge Analysis

In depth
The matchup

The market makes VfL Bochum the side to beat here at 40%, but only just, so this reads as a close call rather than a mismatch. Our model lands on Over 2.5, and it backs that with a 2 units stake. We expect goals to flow freely at the Ruhrstadion given how both teams finished their recent matches. The price on offer for over 2.5 goals sits at 1.65.

Form and momentum

VfL Bochum come in patchy, winning 40% of 5 on record. 0 of their 2 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 loss in a row.

Arminia Bielefeld come in poor, winning 17% of 6 on record. 0 of their 3 away games went their way, and the numbers point to games at both ends, plenty of goals either way. Right now they are on 1 draw in a row.

The price and the value

The prices turn into 40% for BOC, 27% for the draw and 33% for DSC once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. There is little between the two in the market, so the edge, if there is one, sits in the detail rather than the headline price. Our call sits at 1.65, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.

Where it could go wrong
  • Arminia Bielefeld showed they can struggle to find the back of the net during their recent losses in league action.
  • VfL Bochum put up inconsistent scoring numbers across their last five matches which adds doubt to an over bet.
The bottom line

We back Over 2.5 for 2 units. It settles itself when the game ends, win or lose, and it goes on the record either way. This is an opinion read off the form and the prices on this page, not advice, and never a promise of a result.
