Arminia Bielefeld vs Borussia Monchengladbach prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22

Domestic football returns this weekend and the Bundesliga is no exception. Arminia Bielefeld will face Borussia Monchengladbach at the SchucoArena on Saturday.

Arminia Bielefeld have hit good form of late. They beat Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in their last game, with Patrick Wimmer and Alessandro Schöpf both getting on the scoresheet. Both goals came in the first half and a dogged defensive effort coupled with goalkeeping heroics from Stefan Ortega saw the hosts see the game out on top.

The home team sit 14th in the league table with 21 points from 20 games. They will now be looking to continue the strong showing they have displayed this year.

Borussia Monchengladbach, on the other hand, have been one of the biggest underperformers in the Bundesliga this season. They were beaten 2-1 by Union Berlin last time out and failed to create any noteworthy chances to level the scores.

Die Borussen sit 12th in the Bundesliga with just 22 points from 20 games. They are much closer to the relegation places than they are to the European spots and will now be looking to return to winning ways this weekend.
