Dortmund are going to have a comfortable game next time. It is against Bochum away. I'm saying it like this because Bochum made a terrible start. They just lost to Stuttgart by a big score like 5-0. This would demoralize them a lot for this game ahead in my opinion. Dortmund should be able to show the quality gap to us here.
In their first game Dortmund didn't seem convincing despite winning against Koln. But it was the beginning of the season and in time they should be getting better. The Bochum game might be an opportunity to improve their performance much more honestly. They should be able to win by at least two goals.
Even though Bochum fell 5-0 to Stuttgart in the first week, that doesn't mean that Dortmund will win the match easily. because, Dortmund also did not achieve satisfactory results. referring to the first match of the season, Dortmund had quite a hard time defeating the opposing team, namely Koln. although in the end Dortmund won the game, it looks like they have to work hard to score goals. whereas, Koln is not a tough opponent for Dortmund.
This week Dortmund will visit Bochum headquarters, we will see how the consistency of Edin Terzic's squad plays. although we agree, on paper Dortmund should be able to topple the home team. in the first match, maybe Edin Terzic's squad needs a warm-up to return to playing nicely like they did in previous matches. they have had a series of quite impressive pre-season matches. plus, Dortmund have pocketed two matches with wins in different competitions, three points is the result they must bring home in the match against Bochum.
On the other hand, Bochum does not want to repeat the same defeat as when they had an away game against Stuttgart. playing at home, Bochum will try not to lose even more embarrassingly. maybe, they will play in full defensive play mode. like it or not, against Dortmund is not an easy match. a draw, is the ideal option for Bochum.
The match between Dortmund, which will travel to Bochum headquarters, is indeed interesting to follow. Dortmund, under the direction of Edin Terzic, has the potential and quality to win this game. However, in football, it is not always possible to predict the outcome of a match based solely on the quality of the team on paper.
In football, game consistency is important, and Edin Terzic is certainly trying to maintain the good performance of his team. However, in any competition, there is no absolute guarantee of victory. Bochum as the home team will also try to provide tough resistance.
Even though Dortmund are expected to get all three points in this match, the final result could be mixed. Football is always full of surprises and the unexpected.
