Kaiserslautern vs VfL Bochum 1848 prediction, odds and how to watch

Magdeburg put on a clinical home display to dismantle Kaiserslautern 3-0, with Emmanuel Iyoha grabbing a brace and the hosts winning comfortably despite going into the match off the back of a poor recent run.

Kaiserslautern came to Hamburg and earned a deserved 2-1 win over FC St. Pauli, with substitute Abdoulie Ceesay scoring the winner a minute after coming on. St. Pauli had no answer for a visiting side that dominated the match from start to finish.

Kaiserslautern were dominant throughout as goals from Mário Sauer and Thierry Tazemeta sealed a comfortable 2-0 win over a Darmstadt 98 side that had no answer and no desire to find one.

Two sides with more questions than answers meet at the Betzenberg on Saturday. Kaiserslautern need to prove last month's 0-3 hammering was a blip. Bochum need to prove they can keep a clean sheet away from home.

Two sides who cannot string results together meet in Hannover on Sunday. Something has to give, but neither team is giving much confidence right now.

Kaiserslautern have conceded just one goal in their last five 2. Bundesliga matches. Eintracht Braunschweig have shipped nine in their last five. Something has to give on Saturday.

Magdeburg carry four active injuries and a fragile home momentum slope into this fixture, while Kaiserslautern arrive in Matchday 3 having kept clean sheets in 70 percent of their last ten games. The structural contrast between these two sides is the story worth watching.

Kaiserslautern welcome a Darmstadt side without a win in their last ten league games to the Fritz Walter Stadion, where the hosts have kept clean sheets in over 85 percent of their home fixtures this season.
