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.

Bochum 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-head

Arminia Bielefeld are on a terrible run of form, having failed to win a game since mid-February. They have lost seven and drawn two of their last nine Bundesliga games.

Games between the two sides tend to be fairly competitive as the head-to-head record isn’t heavily one-sided.

While Arminia Bielefeld have won this fixture 19 times, Bochum have picked up 23 victories. There have been 18 draws in total as well.

Bochum vs Arminia Bielefeld Prediction

Arminia Bielefeld have a lot more to play for than Bochum, but their recent run of form has been awful. The draw against Hertha Berlin in their last outing will give them some confidence, but we see can’t see them picking up more than a point from their next game.

Prediction: Bochum 1-1 Arminia Bielefeld
