Looking to pick up just their second win of the season, Arminia Bielefeld play host to Vfl Bochum at the Schüco-Arena Stadium on Tuesday.
This will be the first league meeting between the sides since they squared off in the 2. Bundesliga back in 2020 and they will head into this one seeking to get one over the other.
Arminia Bielefeld continued to struggle for form in the Bundesliga as they fell to a 2-0 defeat away to Hertha Berlin.
Frank Kramer’s men have now failed to taste victory in any of their last four games, while they have managed just two wins all season across all competitions.
This poor run of results sees them sit in 17th place in the Bundesliga table after picking up 10 points from 15 games.
Bochum, on the other hand, continued their fine string of performances as they held Borussia Dortmund to a 1-1 draw last Saturday.
Prior to that, Thomas Reis’ men claimed a 2-1 win over Freiburg before seeing off Augsburg away from home a week later.
With 20 points from 15 games, Bochum are currently 10th on the log, level on points with Wolfsburg.
