Bochum vs Bayern Munich
German Bundesliga
Date: 21 August 2022, Sunday
Kick-off at 16:30 UK / 17:30 CET
Venue: Vonovia Ruhrstadion (Bochum).

Bochum and Bayern Munich will wrap up the happenings in the third round of Bundesliga on Sunday afternoon when they take on each other at Vonovia Ruhrstadion.

The hosts are in danger of suffering the third consecutive defeat in as many games at the start of the season.

All teams are heavy underdogs against the reigning champions in Germany and Bochum are obviously not an exception, particularly after conceding five goals in the opening two fixtures.

Thomas Reis’ men wasted an early two-goal advantage last weekend in Sinsheim when they dropped it all by conceding three goals for a 3-2 defeat at Hoffenheim.

Bochum have conceded 24 shots, 13 of which went on target on the occasion. Knowing they are now set to face by far a deadlier attacking line, we are not quite confident regarding their chances for success here.

The Bavarians, on the other side, enter this tie on the back of two easy wins and a goal difference of 8-1 after the inaugural two rounds.

They did not have too many problems against the likes of Eintracht Frankfurt and Wolfsburg in the first two games of the season.

Youngster Jamal Musiala stood up in the absence of Robert Lewandowski who left the team this summer to sign for Barcelona.

The German forward has bagged three goals in the opening two games and he might represent the biggest threat to Bochum’s goal on Sunday, alongside the new acquisition Sadio Mane obviously.

波鸿vs拜仁慕尼黑
德国足球甲级联赛
日期:2022年8月21日，星期日
开球时间为英国16:30 /欧洲中部17:30
地点:沃诺维亚鲁赫体育场(波鸿)。

波鸿和拜仁慕尼黑将在周日下午的德甲第三轮比赛中结束比赛，他们将在伏诺维亚鲁赫球场对决。

东道主有可能在本赛季开始的几场比赛中遭遇三连败。

在德国，所有球队都在卫冕冠军面前处于劣势，波鸿显然也不例外，特别是在开局两回合丢了5球之后。

托马斯·雷斯的球队在上周末的辛斯海姆球场浪费了两球的优势，他们在与霍芬海姆的比赛中丢了三球，最终以3比2落败。

波鸿已经丢了24次射门，其中13次射正。知道他们现在要面对的是一条更加致命的进攻线，我们对他们在这里成功的机会不是很有信心。

另一边的巴伐利亚人在首两轮比赛中轻松获胜并取得8比1的净胜球后，进入了这场平局。

在赛季前两场对阵法兰克福和沃尔夫斯堡的比赛中，他们没有遇到太多问题。

年轻球员贾马尔·穆西亚拉在莱万多夫斯基缺席的情况下挺身而出，莱万多夫斯基今年夏天离开球队加盟巴塞罗那。

德国前锋在开场的两场比赛中打进3球，他可能是周日波鸿进球的最大威胁，显然还有新引进的萨迪奥·马内。
