Arminia Bielefeld vs RB Leipzig prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22

Arminia Bielefeld and RB Leipzig will draw the curtain on the 2021-22 German Bundesliga campaign when they lock horns at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium on Saturday.

While the hosts have been effectively relegated to the second tier, Die Roten Bullen will be looking to secure their place in next season’s Champions League.

Arminia Bielefeld failed to move into the relegation playoff spot last Friday as they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Bochum.

They have now failed to taste victory in any of their last 10 outings, picking up two points from a possible 30 since February’s 1-0 win over Union Berlin.

With 27 points from 33 games, Arminia Bielefeld are currently 17th in the Bundesliga table, three points off 16th-placed Stuttgart, who boast a goal difference of +7 in the relegation playoff spot.

RB Leipzig, meanwhile, returned to winning ways last time out as they comfortably saw off Augsburg 4-0 on home turf.

Prior to that, they were beaten 3-1 by Borussia Monchengladbach on May 2 before suffering a semi-final exit from the Europa League courtesy of a 3-1 loss to Rangers three days later.

With 57 points from 33 games, RB Leipzig are currently fourth in the league standings, two points above fifth-placed Freiburg just outside the final Champions League qualification spot.
