Full-time: Hannover 0-0 Bochum

Hannover are held, despite being well on top throughout - with the superb Timo Horn proving too great an obstacle in the Bochum goal. The visitors can be pleased to have come away with a point.

Miyoshi carded

The Japanese player does make contact with the ball with his sliding tackle, and instead catches Ghita's shin. That's a yellow card.

Youthful switch

Wittek is unable to play on due to cramp, and 18-year-old Koscierski comes on for him.

Pannewig has a chance to pounce

Bochum win the ball high up the pitch. Pannewig plays a one-two with Hofmann in the penalty area and then hits the post. That was so close!

76'

Yokota again and again

The Japanese player has been a livewire tonight - and is unfortunate not to have got on the scoresheet.

With Passlack, Bochum are bringing a defender on for an attacker. Uwe Rösler is clearly aiming to shore things up on the right flank.

Horn again!

Matsuda gets the ball somewhat fortunately in the penalty area and goes one-on-one with Horn. The Bochum goalkeeper makes another super save!

Yellow card for Wittek

The Bochum defender slides in on Aseko Nkili.

59'

Free kick for Hannover...

...but it comes to nothing after Strompf had bundled down Yokota.

55'

Familiar picture

The second half is no different from the first. Hannover are in control, while Bochum are looking to pounce on the break.

50'

Hannover still hunting an opener

After a strong attack, the ball lands to Matsuda in six-yard box. His touch is too imprecise though and Wittek is able to clear.

47'

More pyrotechnics

The Hannover fans are now setting off the flares, but this time the match soon continues.

46'

We're back underway

Hannover are playing from left to right in the second half

Kick-off!

Half-time: Hannover 0-0 Bochum

Hannover are dominating the match and should be leading having created several chances and missed a penalty. At the other end, Bochum are creating occasional threats and have had some dangerous moments in front of goal. Let's hope for goals in the second period.

Half-time

0:24

Onyeka can't get there

Alfa-Ruprecht crosses from the right to the near post. Bero nods it on into the six-yard box but Onyeka can't get his head to it. He is caught by Noll in the process, but that's not enough for a penalty.

Bochum on the break

Onyeka breaks through on the left side and finds Lenz in the six-yard box. However, the header from the midfielder is too central and fails to trouble Noll.

Hannover unlucky

xGoals

The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).

The hosts have dominated the match without managing to find a way past Horn yet. Will Hannover rue the penalty miss?

After a quickly taken free kick, Aseko Nkili gets a shot away at the edge of the penalty area. Horn has no problems dealing with it.

Eleven minutes of stoppage time!

That comes as no surprise after pyrotechnics caused a long delay earlier in the half.

Poor penalty

Källmann places his shot to the right but Horn sensed that - and the spot kick causes no problems for the Bochum goalkeeper.

Bochum growing

The visitors are getting more and more into the game. Wätjen dribbles into the penalty area but his shot is too tame to cause Noll any problems.

37'

Ball Recovery Time

Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).

We go again

The fans have stocked up on drinks, and the players have kept as warm as possible with some balls on the pitch. Play now resumes following an eight-minute break.

16'

Brief interruption

A chance for a bit of a breather as the Bochum fans are setting off pyrotechnics and the referee suspends the match due to the smoke.

15'

That could have been the opener

After a cross and a headed lay-off, Yokoto gets a free shot in front of Horn - the Bochum goalkeeper extends himself big and makes a strong save.

13'

Not far off

Oudenne beats Loosli. The Hannover player then runs towards the goal from a tight angle and narrowly misses the target.

Hannover on the ball

As expected, the home team has a lot of control of the game. Bochum want to make an impact through quick counter-attacks.

Hannover get an early opening too

Hannover also manage to get in front of the goal. However, Yokota's shot goes wide of the target.

First chance

After some initial probing, Bochum create the first opportunity. Onyeka deflects Wittek's shot over the crossbar.

The stage is set

Hannover can make ground in promotion race

With Elversberg and Darmstadt playing tomorrow, Hannover can move ahead of them and climb to third place temporarily with a win.

Sissoko starts

In another change for Bochum, Sissoko moves into the starting XI. The Frenchman had been out for three months, and his playing time has been carefully managed of late. In the last away match in Fürth, he also started and scored twice.

More on that Bochum team

Striker Philipp Hofmann scored the winner against Bielefeld last time out, but still has to settle for a place on the bench today. Captain Bero moves into the starting XI in his place, with Onyeka (pictured) likely to play as the central striker.

More on that Hannover team

Christian Titz has to do without three players who were in the starting XI in the 2-2 draw in Münster. Wingers Bundu and Chakroun as well as defender Nawrocki are all out. Neubauer, Yokota and Okon come into the team in their place.

Starting line-up: VfL Bochum 1848

Christian Titz on facing Bochum

"They have many facets to their game. When they sit deep, they are a team who can counter-attack quickly. Through their playmaking ability in midfield, they bring quality on the ball. We will try to invest everything to achieve a positive result for everyone here."

Uwe Rösler on facing Hannover

"Hannover have an exciting philosophy. They press strongly, so we won't have much time on the ball. We need to be very good out of possession, then we'll get our chances."

2:14

Preußen Münster 2-2 Hannover - highlights

Hannover were denied what seemed a near-certain away win last Friday evening by two stoppage-time goals, with the Reds falling to fifth as a result.

2:15

Bochum 1-0 Arminia Bielefeld - highlights

Philipp Hofmann headed the winner as Bochum made it four wins out of five to move up to ninth.

Titz's bad memory

Hannover's Christian Titz has only faced Bochum once before - a 0-0 draw at the Volkspark in October 2018 in what was his final game as Hamburg coach.

A long time ago...

Bochum have played against no other team in Bundesliga 2 so often without ever winning. They last celebrated an away victory in Hannover some 16 years ago in the Bundesliga, on 19 December 2009, when the Ruhr club turned around a 2-0 half-time deficit to win 3-2.

Will there be an away win for the first time?

In the 14 Bundesliga 2 encounters between the two clubs, the away team has never won.

Last encounters

Hannover and Bochum are meeting for the first time since the 2020/21 season. Back then, there was a win apiece for the home team in Bundesliga 2. Bochum triumphed 4-3 with a goal from Robert Tesche in stoppage time, while Marvin Ducksch sealed a 2-0 win for Hannover from the penalty spot.
