Bochum vs Verl Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 13 November 2026
๐ Verlโs top scorer last season, Taz, could face his former team. He now plays for Bochum. Taz will meet his former club at a difficult time: Verl have gone six consecutive matches without a win in the 3. Liga. Can the striker punish his former teammates?
Head-to-Head
Both head-to-head meetings took place at Bochumโs ground: Verl won one, while the other ended in a draw. The aggregate score was 5-3 in the visitorsโ favour.

Bochum Team Overview
Bochum beat Karlsruhe 3-2 in their latest 2. Bundesliga match. They had considerably more shots than their opponents (27:14), including shots on target (10:4), but their advantage translated into a winning margin of just one goal.
Bochum have already come through a poor spell. In mid-October, they took one point from three matches in the 2. Bundesliga. It came from a draw with Wolfsburg. That was followed by three straight wins in all competitions. The most notable was a 2-0 victory over Mainz in the second round of the German Cup. Bochum became the first team this season to knock a Bundesliga club out of the competition. Their attack remains modest, though: 11 goals in 11 league matches. It could be weakened further in the friendly, with four of the clubโs players called up to their national teams.
Match Results: Bochum

Verl Team Overview
Verl lost 0-1 to Stuttgart II in their last 3. Liga match. They had slightly more possession than their opponents - 52% to 48% - but managed only three shots, none of them on target.
Verl are 17th in the 3. Liga - the first relegation spot. The visitors have lost four in a row, with their heaviest defeat coming at home to Wehen, 1-4. Defence is the main problem: they have conceded 27 goals, a total exceeded by only two teams in the league. The attack is not helping either, with just 17 goals scored in 13 matches.
Match Results: Verl
Safer Bet
There have been no more than four goals in any of Verlโs last 14 away matches. Bochum do not tend to get involved in high-scoring games at home, and neither do the visitors away. We do not expect a fifth goal. The bet is Total Goals - Under 4.5 at 1.24*.

โญ Editor's Pick
Verl's away friendlies do not turn into high-scoring affairs. In 14 consecutive matches of this kind, the two teams have scored fewer than five goals between them. The latest example was October's trip to Hannover, where Verl failed to score. That run is the main guide for this match. Bochum do not score many either: 11 goals in 11 2. Bundesliga matches. The risk is that the hosts scored four against Osnabrรผck in a friendly in early October. Even so, we expect this away friendly for Verl to pass without a goal fest. The bet is Total Goals - Under 3.5.
