St. Pauli take on the visitors Bochum at “Millerntor-Stadion” in the gameweek 18 of the German 2. Bundesliga. The match will be played in Hamburg on Monday, December 18th.
During last five years St. Pauli have been staying in a permanent crisis. This season is not an exception for “Freibeuter” as well: the side has not been able to win since the 1st of October across eights clashes in a row, having deserved five draws and three defeats in them. The club earned 2:2 draw against Duisburg in the previous round. “Freibeuter” have finished the first lap sitting on the 15th place in the elite division table with 21 points gained and 16-28 goal difference. Moreover, the team managed to pick up only eight points with 10 goals for and 14 goals against in eight encounters played in face of its supporters. St. Pauli have got four draws in a row at the home pitch since the 13th of October.

Unlike the upcoming hosts, Bochum have not been broken since the 30th of October across six consecutive matches, covering two triumphs and four draws. It is worth mentioning that the club won two latest home battles against Union Berlin 2:1 and Regensburg 1:0. In the mid of the season Jens Rasiejewski‘s side occupies the ninth position in the German second division with 23 points taken and 17-19 goal difference. “Die Unbeugsamen” deserved nine points with six goals for and 12 goals against in nine games conducted at away fields.
St. Pauli have not been defeated by Bochum since the 15th of February 2014 across seven head-to-heads, having got four triumphs and three draws in them. “Freibeuter” earned 1:0 victory in the reverse fixture played earlier in this season on the road. Taking into consideration the rivals’ head-to-heads statistics as well as home-field factor and the hosts’ great admiration for the draws in front of their fans, I believe that they will earn some points in the Monday fight.
Prediction for the match: St. Pauli to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
