Preussen Münster host Bochum on Friday evening with both sides looking to gain momentum at a crucial stage of the league campaign.
Bochum make the trip to LVM-Preußenstadion looking to extend their unbeaten run after a well-deserved win against Schalke last weekend. Meanwhile, Preussen Munster come into Friday´s fixture after a hard-fought draw at Nurnberg.
Recent encounters have been fleeting, but recent results suggest a tight contest should be expected this weekend.

Preussen Munster and Bochum have met on just two occasions since 2017. Bochum scored a 4:2 friendly win in March 2025 before Preussen exacted revenge with a 2:1 Bundesliga II victory earlier this season.
Preussen Munster team overview
Preussen Munster come into Friday´s Bundesliga II contest still searching for a first win in 2026 following a 1:1 draw at Nurnberg last weekend. Jorrit Hendrix 'second goal of the season rescued a point for Alexander Ende´s side.
The home side have now failed to win each of their last six domestic fixtures, with three draws and three defeats recorded in that period. Preussen now sit 15th in the division, just one point above the relegation zone.
A low-score draw seems likely this weekend. Preussen Munster have drawn four of their last eight Bundesliga II encounters, including three of their last four games at LVM-Preußenstadion.
Recent form suggests we can expect goals on Friday evening. Munster have seen BTTS in six of their last eight games, and in three previous encounters against Bochum.
Head coach Ende has no fresh injury worries this weekend. Antonio Tikvić, Malik Batmaz and Simon Scherder all remain sidelined with long-term cruciate ligament injuries, while Lars Lokotsch is also expected to remain unavailable.

Bochum team overview
Bochum return to Bundesliga action on Friday after a well-deserved 2:0 win against Schalke last time out. Koji Miyoshi opened the scoring in the first minute of the contest before Philipp Hofmann secured victory for Uwe Rösler´s side.
Die Unabsteigbaren have enjoyed a solid run of form in recent weeks, but remain unable to turn draws into victories. The visitors have been held in four of their last five league fixtures. All four games finished with both teams on the scoresheet.
Past the midway point in the season, Bochum sit eighth in the Bundesliga II, eight points behind the automatic promotion positions.
Head coach Rösler has four players missing this weekend. Kevin Vogt, Matus Bero and Ibrahim Sissoko are ruled out through injury, while Moritz Göttlicher is also unavailable.
