RB Leipzig: Statistics, current form and highlights
RB With a narrow 1-0 win against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, kept a small hope for the title alive, but in reality it will be incredibly difficult to make up seven points behind Bayern in the last 15 games of the season.
Leipzig reached the final two years ago, when Bayern were beaten 3-0. Now you can’t be complacent against Bochum, who play at the top of the second division.
In direct comparison, they won all four games in the second division seasons 2014/15 and 2015/16. The last game under Ralf Rangnick was won 3-1 thanks to goals from Dominik Kaiser and twice by Massimo Bruno. Incidentally, the Belgian is playing at home at RSC Charleroi again today.
For Bochum, Anthony Losilla provided the connection goal. The Frenchman, who like Manuel Riemann and Thomas Eisfeld still plays for the VFL, is now the captain.
Coach Julian Nagelsmann has to do without Dominik Szoboszlai, Konrad Laimer, Ibrahima Konaté and Benjamin Henrichs. Presumably he rotates Marcel Halstenberg, Amadou Haidara and Yussuf Poulsen in.
at home – Bayer Leverkusen – 1-0 30/01 2021 – Bundesliga
away – Mainz – 2: 3 23/01 2021 – Bundesliga

Bochum: Statistics, current form and highlights
Compared to Leipzig it is VFL Bochum a traditional club that played 34 of 39 seasons in the Bundesliga from 1971 until relegation in 2010.
The formerly irreconcilable reached the UEFA Cup with 5th place in 1997 and 2004 and, like their upcoming opponents, were in the DFB Cup final against Cologne in 1968 and against Frankfurt in 1988, but without winning it.
The physical exercise club is now playing in the second division for the eleventh season in a row. In view of the fact that you are second to an automatic promotion place, the league has priority for coach Thomas Reis. Getting ahead in the cup is associated with a lot of prestige and money.
The trip to Leipzig is a chance for the 47-year-old coach and his team to compete with a top first division team. How far are they from competing with the prime?
After the win on penalties against Mainz 05 in the last round, they will be cautiously optimistic, but are also aware that RB represents a huge leap in quality.
Patrick Drewes comes into the gate
The VFL is missing the red-banned goalkeeper Manuel Riemann, who was sent off in Mainz because of an emergency brake. Patrick Drewes will represent him. Vasilios Lampropoulos and Danny Blum are still in training after injuries.
TV broadcast / streaming: The game is broadcast by sky Sport. There is a summary after the live broadcast Stuttgart versus Gladbach on ARD.
The next games: Schalke against RB on 06.02. – Osnabrück against Bochum on February 6th
We say: a tie
If the VFL Bochum stretches out properly and throws everything into the balance, it is possible to achieve extra time through a draw. Both Bochum with Zoller and Zulj as well as RB have accurate people on the pitch, so we can expect a few hits.
