Bochum is now bottom of the points table after losing all three matches. Their performance has been very poor this season. SC Freiburg has won 2 out of 3 matches. Freiburg has been performing fairly consistently since the start of the season. However, Bochum has won 3 of the last 5 meetings between Freiburg and Bochum. So even though Freiburg are the favorites in this match, it will be very difficult for them to get full points from the match.
Well i would say it is not that big of a surprise that Bochum is at the bottom of the table at the moment. I would guess that most experts and fans expected them to already be relegated down again to the second Bundesliga after the last season but back then they managed to surprise everyone and to finish the season on the 13th position and they were never really in danger.
This season they did not manage to get a good start and now it becomes harder and harder for them to keep the good mood in the club. In addition to that there are some rumors regarding their coach Thomas Reis because his contract is running out and it seems like he does not want to prolong it. That can also cause some unrest.
