Ruhrpott twisted – Blue and white hopes for Black and Yellow!
And not on Tuesday evening in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final at PSG, but on Saturday in Mainz.
The whole of Bochum is keeping its fingers crossed for Dortmund – but only for its own salvation!
Bizarre situation: If BVB wins the top game (6.30 p.m./Sky) against the zero fives (16th), VfL (14th) will certainly be saved – no matter how their own game against Leverkusen (Sunday/7.30 p.m./ DAZN) ends. Of all people, the archenemy can make it perfect to stay in the league!
It is conceivable that BVB coach Edin Terzic (41) will start the rotation machine again because of the Champions League qualification already bagged. From VfL’s point of view, a good omen: Even with a never-before-seen starting eleven with players like Wätjen, Papadopoulos and Morey, Dortmund was able to win 5-1 against Augsburg.

For Bochum, the starting position is suddenly great with a lead of four points and two games left. This is thanks to the two high-voltage victories over Hoffenheim (3:2) and Union (4:3).
► New coach Heiko Butscher (43), who made unfortunate decisions at the beginning of his term in office, played a part in this. Against Heidenheim (1:1) and Wolfsburg (0:1) he trusted a starting eleven that had barely changed compared to his predecessor Thomas Letsch (55). But then he drew the conclusions from the weak performances and thus triggered a delayed coaching change effect. Among other things, his lineup changes (Maxi Wittek up front, Matus Bero in the center) are bearing fruit.

Exciting: If the arch-enemy from Dortmund lets Bochum down, history could repeat itself on Sunday: In 2023, VfL made it clear that they would save against Leverkusen after a successful experience in Berlin (at that time with Hertha) had caused a high mood.
