The thrills of the German Bundesliga continue this weekend, as the clubs take to the field to fight for 3 points on matchday 19.
The fight for the top of the table seems to be stretching a bit, as Bayern’s recent loss to Werder Bremen left the team in a lot of trouble to have a chance of catching Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the table. However, there is still a lot of season left to play, and we all know that the Bavarians are capable of a comeback and much more.
Likewise, we have a very nice battle in the rest of the table positions, as the difference between third place Stuttgart and Dortmund in fifth place is only 1 point. That is why, indisputably, we will have a new team inside the top four of the table at the start of matchday 20.
Now, this weekend, we will have a spectacular match between Borussia Dortmund and VfL Bochum.

Sunday, January 28th, 11:30 am ET at the Signal Iduna Park

Why Bet on Borussia Dortmund?
Borussia Dortmund will always be a team that will fight at least for the Champions League places, season after season in the Bundesliga. Although they had a great start to the season, the team fell into a slump from which it was challenging to get out.
Because of this, they moved away from the fight for the top of the table, but remain in fifth place in the standings, with a record of nine wins, six draws, and three defeats. Also, it is fair to mention that BVB comes into this match after two wins and two draws in the last four games played, and they have a goal-scoring record of 37 goals for and 25 against.
Unless something strange happens, Dortmund should take all three points on matchday 19. However, with all the surprises we have seen this season, anything is on the cards.
BVB comes from annihilating Köln in the previous matchday with a score of 4-0.
Why Bet on VfL Bochum?
On the other hand, we have Bochum, a team that has had a real roller coaster ride throughout this 2023/24 Bundesliga season.
Due to this and the lack of consecutive wins, Bochum currently sits in 14th place in the standings, and they have a record of four wins, eight draws, and six losses. Although the team has not lost many games, the draws prevent them from being better placed in the table. In addition, it’s worth mentioning that, right now, they have a nine-point cushion over Mainz in the relegation zone.
Bochum has to work hard to get out of their bad moment and thus be able to climb, at least, to the middle of the table. However, the team is only two points behind Heidenheim in ninth place, so a win could help them climb many positions.
‘Die Unabsteigbaren’ are coming from an excellent win against Stuttgart with a score of 1-0.
Final Betting Analysis: Borussia Dortmund vs. VfL Bochum
In the last 20 opportunities these two teams have met, BVB has managed to win nine times. Bochum, for their part, has accumulated four wins, while four matches have ended in draws. However, the last two meetings between them ended in a draw with a score of 1-1.
At 1XBET, we can get that there is a Moneyline that favors Borussia Dortmund at 1.345, while VfL Bochum starts at 7.80.
For this match, we do not doubt that our prediction is a solid win for Borussia Dortmund.
Look for a win on Borussia Dortmund’s Moneyline. For example, if you put $100 on them at 1.345, you’ll see a $34.50 success with a total payout of $134.50.
