The full build-up and the VfL Bochum 1848 vs VfL Wolfsburg match page are below.
VfL Bochum 1848 play VfL Wolfsburg at the Ruhrstadion in Bochum on Friday, 23 October 2026, with kick-off at 17:30 BST. It is a 2. Bundesliga fixture, the ninth matchday of the league season in Germany.
Four goals in six games tells you most of it. Bochum have won once in that run, drawn once and lost four, and the two most recent defeats were the kind that leave a manager with very little to point at: beaten 0-2 away to 1. FC Kaiserslautern 6 days ago, beaten 0-1 at home by Arminia Bielefeld 12 days ago.
They have failed to score in 3 of those 6 matches and kept no clean sheets at all. Eight conceded, four scored.
Home has been no refuge either. Bochum have won 0 of their last 3 at the Ruhrstadion, taking a point from SpVgg Greuther Fürth in a 1-1 draw 41 days ago and losing to Bielefeld and to VfL Osnabrück. Their one win in the sequence came on the road, 2-1 at SG Dynamo Dresden 48 days ago. Uwe Rösler's side sit 16th on 7 points from 8 league games, according to Bulinews.
