Arminia Bielefeld will hope to boost their chances of survival when they face Bochum at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion this Friday in the Bundesliga.A win would lift Bielefeld to the promotion playoff spot should other results go their way and ensure they stay within touching distance of Hertha Berlin who occupy the 15th position.Bochum, on the other hand, have already secured their top-flight status and don’t have much to play for in the upcoming games.They can finish in the top 10, and that is perhaps something manager Thomas Reis will look at. It has been a pretty solid season for the team in their first campaign back in the top flight.DSC Arminia Bielefeld@arminiaKleiner Rückblick aufs Hinspiel:Patrick Wimmer flankt, Masaya Okugawa springt in den zweiten Stock - wir gehen in Führung! 🤩Am Ende hieß es 2:0.#immerdabei #ThrowbackThursday #DSCBOC612Kleiner Rückblick aufs Hinspiel:Patrick Wimmer flankt, Masaya Okugawa springt in den zweiten Stock - wir gehen in Führung! 🤩Am Ende hieß es 2:0.#immerdabei #ThrowbackThursday #DSCBOC https://t.co/1As4B3b18DBochum shocked Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park in their previous outing, a result that ended a run of three games without a win.Bochum vs Arminia Bielefeld Head-to-headArminia Bielefeld are on a terrible run of form, having failed to win a game since mid-February.
