Bochum and Wolfsburg square off at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion in round 29 of the German Bundesliga on Saturday.
Both sides have picked up just two points from their last three games and will be looking to return to winning ways.
Bochum failed to pull clear of the Bundesliga relegation zone as they could only salvage a 1-1 draw with Union Berlin on Sunday.
Thomas Letsch’s side have gone three consecutive games without a win, claiming two points from a possible nine since March’s 1-0 win over Leipzig.
With 27 points from 28 games, Bochum are currently 15th in the Bundesliga table, three points above Stuttgart in the relegation playoff spot.
Meanwhile, Wolfsburg failed to arrest their slump last time out when they were held to a goalless draw by Bayer Leverkusen.
Like the hosts, Niko Kovac’s men head into the weekend winless in three consecutive games and have managed just one win in their last six matches since the start of March.
With 40 points from 28 games, Wolfsburg are currently ninth in the league table, four points away from the Conference League qualification spot.
