- With 12 points from 7 matches, Kaiserslautern are in seventh place in the 2. Bundesliga, while the FC Kaiserslautern vs VfL Bochum prediction sees VfL Bochum having accumulated just three points and sit in 17th after seven games played.
- Torsten Lieberknecht’s appointment as manager in April 2025 has had a transformational impact upon the club, with his tactical discipline and pragmatic style giving Kaiserslautern a much more balanced and effective identity.
Bochum
- Bochum’s away form in the 2. Bundesliga has been atrocious, losing 4 of 4 with 9 goals conceded in the process.
- The problem for Bochum is that their game plan has broken down due to the disorganisation and poor results since the managerial change.
- David Siebers has been installed as interim manager and will have his work cut out for him to steady the ship at Bochum, who are currently in a tailspin of five consecutive league defeats, with both of their last two defeats coming in away games against Paderborn and Nuernberg.
