Stats for this game

Matchup VfL Bochum VS Holstein Kiel

Kiel take the cross-venue lead

Holstein Kiel’s 3-1 home win over VfL Bochum on 4 December 2020 and 3-2 away victory on 22 March 2026 point to a slight advantage that travels. The two successes came at different venues and with different margins, so the balance is about direction rather than a single score pattern.

Bochum have a home answer

VfL Bochum beat Kiel 2-1 at home on 3 April 2021. That result is a direct counterweight to Kiel’s away success and keeps Bochum in the conversation when the fixture is played in Bochum. It also shows that a narrow home win can sit inside the wider edge.

Draws leave room for movement

The 1-1 draw in Kiel on 25 October 2025 adds another restraint to the picture. Taken with those wins, it suggests a matchup where Kiel have the firmer direction but Bochum can contest the margin. Another meeting will ask whether Bochum convert that resistance into a result or Kiel extend their cross-venue advantage.
