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

League football returns in Germany this week as Eintracht Frankfurt host Arminia Bielefeld at the Commerzbank Arena on Friday.

Eintracht Frankfurt were held to a 1-1 draw by Augsburg in their last Bundesliga outing. They will feel they should have gotten more from the game as they created better chances to score but were wasteful in front of goal.

The Eagles sit eighth in the league, with 28 points from 19 games. They will now look to return to winning ways at the weekend after playing out back-to-back winless games.

Arminia Bielefeld have begun fighting to protect their top-flight status and are doing well at the moment. They played out a 2-2 draw against Greuther Furth last time out in what turned out to be an entertaining game of football.

Arminia Bielefeld sit 16th in the league with 18 points from 19 games. They can jump above the drop zone with a win on Friday and will look to do just that.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Arminia Bielefeld Prediction

Eintracht Frankfurt have failed to win any of their last two games despite playing significantly better than their opponents on both occasions. Manager Oliver Glasner will hope his side can maximize their dominance in games as the season goes on.

Arminia Bielefeld are currently fighting for their lives in the Bundesliga and are unbeaten in their last four games, scoring eight goals in that period. Friday's game could, however, prove a test too tough for them.
