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

Relegation candidate Arminia Bielefeld square off against Augsburg in a Bundesliga 2021-22 game at WWK Arena on Sunday.

Both sides have had a dismal start to their Bundesliga campaigns. Arminia are 16th in the table with just four points from seven matches, while Augsburg are just one spot ahead of them in 15th with one more point in the same number of matches.

Arminia were thumped 4-0 by Bayer Leverkusen in their last Bundesliga outing. Moussa Diaby and Kerim Demirbay each scored a goal for the winning team, while Patrick Schick scored a brace.

Augsburg played Bundesliga heavyweights Borussia Dortmund before the international break and ended up losing the game 2-1. Andi Zeqiri equalized for the visitors after Raphael Guerreiro had put Dortmund ahead, but Julian Brandt's strike in the 51st minute settled the game in the hosts' favor.

Both sides will be desperate for three points considering their situation in the table, which could make for a feisty affair. Augsburg have a slight advantage over Arminia Bielefeld considering they are playing on home soil, but it is unlikely that they will be able to make it count.

We foresee the two sides playing out a low-scoring draw.
