Match Prediction
Wolfsburg
It was a season to remember for Wolfsburg, who defied the odds to finish 4th in the Bundesliga table and they will be plying their trade in the Champions League this season too.
They have a side packed with Bundesliga experience and they will be hoping to kick on during the 2021/22 season.
Koen Casteels is the first choice stopper between the sticks and the Belgian has been a loyal servant to Wolfsburg since his arrival.
Chris Brooks continues to impress in central defence and the USA international is renowned for his no-nonsense approach to defending.
Austrian Xaver Schlager is an exciting prospect who could have a breakthrough year for Wolfsburg this season, with Lukas Nmecha arriving from Manchester City with serious stock.
Wout Weghorst will continue to lead the line for Wolfsburg this season, with the Dutchman fresh off a superb performance for the Netherlands at Euro 2020.
Bochum
Bochum find themselves back in the Bundesliga big-time and there is a genuine sense of optimism buzzing around the club.
Survival will obviously be the key objective for Bochum this season but if they can pick up some early points, they could be looking at a top-half finish this term.
Manuel Riemann is the man currently in goal for Bochum and he will be a busy keeper as the season pans out.
Maxim Leitsch looks to have the makings of a complete centre back whilst Erhan Mašović is equally as impressive alongside him.
Robert Tesche is in the side to provide experience and guile in the all-important midfield battle whilst Anthony Losilla being equally as adept at doing that alongside him.
In attacking areas, finding the back of the net will be key for Bochum and Simon Zoller will carry the can for the blues this season.
