Bochum vs Arminia Bielefeld Prediction & Betting tips
Bochum – Bielefeld, the western duel is mainly for the guests in the sign of the relegation. While the VfL Bochum has two goals in the meantime has 40 points on the account and can plan for another second league year, Arminia Bielefeld stands as a table penultimate under tension and Must also take something with a heavy rest program from Bochum.
VfL Bochum, who lost only 14 times against Bielefeld with 22 wins and 16 draws, is still talking about 52 duels. In Bochum the VfL has even more clearly the front with twelve victories, nine draws and only four defeats.
Bochum :
After a solid second round of 22 points, the VfL Bochum has made a mistake with one point from three games in 2017, but then went on with two victories in a row against the Würzburger Kickers (2: 1) and 1. FC Nürnberg (1 : 0) can provide some air. After that, however, a 1: 2 against Fortuna Dusseldorf and equal five (!) Draws in succession ensured that the VfL not only stepped on the place, but moved the descent zone because of the puncturing Kellerklubs. The 1: 0 home win against SpVgg Greuther Fürth, which could not be confirmed at Eintracht Braunschweig (0: 2), was therefore really important. Last weekend against Dynamo Dresden after a 2: 2 break with a remarkable second half still a 4: 2 victory, with which the 40 point mark was reached.
Despite the weak first half, coach Gertjan Verbeek could offer an unchanging start. While Dominik Wydra could be back in the squad after a flu, Pawel Dawidowicz, Kevin Stöger, Timo Perthel and Stefano Celozzi are still on the way.
Probable lineup: Riemann – Gyamerah, Hoogland, Bastians – Losilla, Janelt – Weilandt, Eisfeld, Stiepermann – Wurtz, Mlapa
Arminia Bielefeld :
After the trend at the end of a 14-point still unsatisfactory first round still showed upwards, only six points from the first seven games meant a mistake in 2017, which cost the trainer Jürgen Kramny again in the autumn again the job. After a 2-0 success under Interimstrainer Carsten Rump against the 1. FC Kaiserslautern, the new coach Jeff Saibene took over his position with seven points from the matches at the Würzburger Kickers (1: 1), against Fortuna Düsseldorf ( 2: 1) and the SV Sandhausen (3: 1) very well. Afterwards, the services were mostly also in order, but were only conditionally rewarded. Against the VfB Stuttgart (2: 3) was lost late and both the 1. FC Heidenheim (2: 2) and last weekend against the SpVgg Greuther Fürth (1: 1) it reached only one point. Bitter was above all the draw against Fürth, the guests scored only in the stoppage time, the equalizer and the underpinned.
Reinhold Yabo should be in the starting line after the infection for David Ulm, which could otherwise remain unchanged. It is not possible to rule out a goalkeeper change, however, after Daniel Davari puttered in the last three games. Christopher Nöthe (Kreuzbandriss) is unlikely to be available.
Probable lineup: Davari – Dick, Behrendt, Börner, Hartherz – Prietl, Schütz – Hemlein, Yabo, Voglsammer – Klos
