Energie Cottbus vs Bochum Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 30 October 2026
🔥 Energie Cottbus and Bochum meet in the tenth round of the German 2. Bundesliga. The hosts sit 11th with ten points, while the visitors are in 14th, two points behind. Both sides have struggled in the league and have each won just twice. Energie have gone four rounds without a win, while Bochum's winless run has stretched to five matches.

Head-to-Head
📊 The two sides have no previous meetings in official matches.

Energie Cottbus Team Overview
Energie Cottbus have won just two of their nine matches this season, picking up ten points. They have been reasonably free-scoring, netting 17 goals, but have also conceded 18. In the previous round they drew 1-1 with Heidenheim, extending their winless run to four matches. Before that, they drew by the same scoreline with Nürnberg and lost to Darmstadt (1-3). At home, Energie have taken five points from four matches, so their home form can hardly be called convincing.
Match Results: Energie Cottbus

Bochum Team Overview
Bochum have also made a poor start to the season, picking up eight points from nine matches. The main problem remains their attack, which has scored just six goals - fewer than any other side in the 2. Bundesliga. In their last five league matches, they have lost three times and drawn twice. In the DFB-Pokal, though, Bochum managed to beat Mainz, ending a run of poor results across all competitions. That win should give the squad some confidence, although their finishing problems in the league still need to be addressed.
Match Results: Bochum
⚡️ Prediction - Match Result
Energie Cottbus have gone unbeaten in 15 of their last 17 home matches. This season at home they have won once, drawn twice and lost once. That said, they have failed to win in 8 of their last 9 matches overall, so this is more about backing them not to lose than expecting a victory. We're going with the Double Chance - Home (1X) at 1.55.
⚽ Goals Prediction
Bochum have scored fewer than two goals in 8 of their last 9 2. Bundesliga matches. This season the team average 0.67 goals per match and 1 goal per away match; over their last ten away fixtures that figure is 1.2. Cottbus concede an average of 1.8 goals per home match over their last ten home games - which limits confidence in the prediction. Nevertheless, the selection is Bochum Team Total - Under 1.5 at 1.93.
🚩 Corners Prediction
Bochum have taken fewer than 6.5 corners in 26 of their last 27 matches. That is a lengthy run directly relevant to the selected line. There are no recent average corner figures in the available data, so the conclusion rests on this sequence: Bochum Team Total Corners - Under 6.5 at odds of 1.50.
*Odds are indicative and may vary depending on the bookmaker.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Energie Cottbus have a more productive attack but concede regularly, which prevents them from winning consistently. Bochum are struggling badly to create and convert chances, having scored just six goals in nine rounds. The visitors are not particularly prolific even against sides in the lower half of the table, while the hosts scored only one goal in three of their last four matches. With both sides in extended winless runs, they may approach this one more cautiously, prioritising avoiding another defeat above all else. With that in mind, we're backing Total Goals - Under 3.5, expecting a modest-scoring affair. A 1-1 draw is a possible outcome.
