We said: VfL Bochum 3-2 Hoffenheim

Only basement club Darmstadt (72) have conceded more goals than both Bochum and Hoffenheim (60 each) in the Bundesliga this season, and goalmouth action at both ends of the pitch is to be expected on Friday. The two teams still have something to play for at this late stage of the campaign, and although Hoffenheim will be regarded as slight favourites for this contest, we believe that Bochum, who have been stronger on home soil this term, may find a way to come out on top and enhance their survival hopes.
