The Bundesliga fixture, DSC Arminia Bielefeld vs. Bayern Munich, kicks off at 14:30 (GMT+1) on Sunday, April 17, at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium.

Arminia Bielefeld were picked apart in a 4-0 loss to VfL Wolfsburg last weekend at the Volkswagen Arena. Lukas Nmecha's brace (11' & 38'), combined with goals from Arnold (48') and Max Kruse (53'), sent Bielefeld reeling. The home side are without a victory in five Bundesliga games, picking up only one point from a possible fifteen, LLLDL, as they sit in 16th place. Bielefeld has 26 points from 5W, 11D, and 13L. Having a goal ratio of 0.79 GPG this season, a win here appears to be a tall order, considering the attacking resources Bayern Munich has at their disposal. However, Frank Kramer would like to come away with at least a point, knowing Bayern haven’t been at their sparkling best in recent times. A 4—2—3—1 formation with Serra leading the attack is expected from Frank Kramer for this weekend's clash against Bayern Munich. On availability, Brunner (concussion) and Klos (head injury) are both ruled out, while Krüger (knock) and Vasiliadis (knee injury) remain in doubt for an appearance on Saturday.

The Bundesliga fixture, VfL Wolfsburg vs. DSC Arminia Bielefeld, kicks off at 14:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, April 9, at the Volkswagen Arena.

Arminia Bielefeld earned a point in a 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart on BL-MD 28. Sasa Kalajdžic (25' P.) bagged the opener from his maiden professional penalty after an Arminia shirt handled the ball in the box. However, a remarkable finish from Arminia's Florian Krüger (59') - his first Bundesliga goal - saw both sides back on level terms. The draw left the club moving one spot ahead, from 17th to 16th place on the Bundesliga table, having picked up 26 points from 5W, 11D, and 12L. Arminia are without a win in five games, LLLLD, ahead of this fixture against Wolfsburg. A victory here could see the Blues move out of the relegation zone if Dortmund picks up a win over VfB Stuttgart [27 points] on Saturday. Frank Kramer and Die Blauen could appear with the 4—2—3—1 formation, having Janni Luca Serra at the top of the shape. On availability, Klos (concussion) is ruled out for the weekend’s game, while Vasiliadis (knee injury) remains doubtful.

The Bundesliga fixture, Borussia Dortmund vs. Arminia Bielefeld, kicks off at 17:30 (GMT+1) on Sunday, March 13, at Signal Iduna Park.

Arminia Bielefeld failed to earn a point following a 1-0 loss to FC Augsburg last Saturday at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium. A single goal from Daniel Caligiuri (50') was enough to tip the scales in Augsburg's favor. In 15th place on the Bundesliga table, having picked up 25 points from 5W, 10D, and 10L, the club sits three points above the bottom two. Die Blauen are making their return after back-to-back defeats, DLWLL, ahead of this fixture against Dortmund. An underwhelming performance in the final third leaves the club with 22 goals [0.88 goals scored per game] after 25 Bundesliga games. The Blues have conceded 33 goals [1.32 goals per match] so far this season and have a G.D. of -11. Frank Kramer’s 4—2—3—1 could see Janni Luca Serra at the top of the shape for this weekend’s game against the Black and Yellows. Patrick Wimmer remains doubtful, while Castro, Nathan de Medina, and Nilsson will not be taking part in the trip to Signal Iduna Park.

After a disappointing defeat to the Zero5ers in last weekend's five-goal thriller on the road, the Company’s Eleven are back against the Blues, hoping to pick up a win and narrow the gap to the top-two. Bayer 04 Leverkusen vs. DSC Arminia Bielefeld kicks off at 15:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, February 26, at BayArena.

Arminia Bielefeld picked up a 1-0 win over FC Union Berlin on BL MD 23. At the Bielefelder Alm Stadium, Masaya Okugawa (53') scored the only goal of the game to hand Bielefeld all three points. The victory saw Arminia Bielefeld move two spots into 14th place on the Bundesliga table, with 25 points from 5W, 10D, & 8L. Having returned to winning ways following two games without a victory, DWDLW, the Blues are looking to cause an upset at the weekend. Arminia Bielefeld has earned more away points in the Bundesliga against Leverkusen than any other side. The Blues aim to draw more blood from the Eleven when both sides unsheathe their swords at BayArena this weekend. Frank Kramer and Die Blauen could appear with the 4—2—3—1 formation, leaving Janni Luca Serra in attack. Andrade (ankle) and Prietl (ill) are on the list of possible absentees for the weekend's game.

The Bundesliga fixture, RB Leipzig vs. Arminia Bielefeld kicks off at 15:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, December 18, at the Red Bull Arena, Leipzig.

Arminia Bielefeld picked up a 2-0 win over VfL Bochum on home soil during the mid-week round of fixtures. Masaya Okugawa (51') rattled the back of the net with the opener, minutes short of the hour mark. Nine minutes after the hour, Patrick Wimmer (69') struck for Bielefeld’s second at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium. Despite the comfortable 2-0 victory, Arminia Bielefeld remained in the relegation waters of the German Bundesliga, in 17th place, having picked up 13 points from 2W, 7D, & 7L. Bielefeld have picked up five points from a possible 15 in the last five Bundesliga games: DLDLW. Four points shy of possible safety, Frank Kramer aims to pick up at least a point in this difficult fixture against the Red Bulls, in a bid to remain within striking distance of 16th-placed Augsburg. Kramer’s probable 4—1—2—1—2 formation could see Masaya Okugawa playing the role of a false 9 once again. On availability, Barrett Laursen remains doubtful, along with Lennart Czyborra.

After being stunned by Augsburg in the Bavarian derby, Bayern Munich returns to German soil, aiming for a win over Arminia Bielefeld this weekend in a bid to maintain their narrow lead at the top of the table. This fixture between the Reds and the Blues kicks off at 18:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, November 27, at Allianz Arena. Robert Lewandowski remains Bundesliga’s top scorer - with four consecutive top scorers’ title in the shape of a Demi-culverin on his back - while having scored 14 goals this season as he hunts for his 7th league top scorer title. Teammate Thomas Müller keeps the crown as Bundesliga’s assist king with 9 to his name, while the goalkeepers, Wolfsburg’s Koen Casteels and Hoffenheim’s Oliver Baumann have the highest number of clean sheets, 5. Second-placed Dortmund trails Bayern by a point, while Greuther Fürth stays rooted to the bottom of the table with one point. Bundesliga MD13 presents itself after 108 games and 323 goals.

Arminia Bielefeld picked up a 2-2 draw against VfL Wolfsburg at the Bielefelder Alm on MD12. Remaining in 17th place, the club has 9 points from 1W, 6D, & 5L, while having the form, DLLWD. Poor at both ends of the pitch, the club has 9 goals (0.75 gpg) after 12 Bundesliga games. Die Blauen have conceded 18 goals (1.5 g.c.p.g.) this season and have a G.D. of -9. Frank Kramer could use the 4—2—3—1 formation with the skipper, Klos, in attack. Florian Krüger’s availability for Saturday’s fixture remains shrouded in mystery due to illness.

The Bundesliga fixture, DSC Arminia Bielefeld vs. VfL Wolfsburg, kicks off at 15:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, November 20, at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium.

Arminia Bielefeld picked up a narrow 1-0 win over VfB Stuttgart on Saturday, November 6. After five draws and five defeats, Bielefeld were bent on overturning their fortunes on the pitch and took the game to the home side in a spirited fight to pick up their very first victory of the season. Masaya Okugawa (19') broke the deadlock inside the opening twenty minutes with what eventually became the only goal of the game at the Mercedes-Benz Arena with 33,550 spectators in attendance. Bielefeld would have found the second, but poor luck saw the visitors hit the woodwork three times in the second half. With the confidence-boosting first win wrapped up, LDLLW, Frank Kramer will be looking to cause an upset on Matchday 12 in a bid to overtake both Augsburg (16th) and Stuttgart (15th). Both clubs have difficult fixtures over the weekend. Augsburg takes on Bayern Munich, while Stuttgart faces Dortmund. Bielefeld sits in 17th place, having 8 points after 1W, 5D, & 5L, and are two points adrift of safety. However, with a goal ratio of 0.64 gpg, Bielefeld will need something short of a miracle to see off a renascent Wolfsburg. Frank Kramer's 4—4—1—1 formation with the skipper, Klos, in attack is expected against Wolfsburg.

The Bundesliga Matchday 9 fixture, Arminia Bielefeld vs. Borussia Dortmund, kicks off at 14:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, October 23, at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium.

Arminia Bielefeld picked up a 1-1 draw against Augsburg at the WWK Arena on Sunday, October 17, Matchday 8. A Reece Oxford (19’) goal had the home side, Augsburg, in the lead, but a strike from Jacob Barrett Laursen (77’) midway through the second half restored parity for the visitors. The draw leaves Arminia without a victory in five Bundesliga games: LDLLD, and in 17th place, having picked up 5 points after 0W, 5D, & 3L. The newcomers, who were recently promoted, are having difficulties creating in the final-third. Arminia Bielefeld have been able to find the back of the net once in every two games (an average of 0.5 goals per game) so far this season, having scored only four goals in eight Bundesliga games. At their end, they have conceded 11 goals (1.38 goals conceded-per-game) and thus have a goal difference of -7. Frank Kramer’s 3—4—2—1 formation could see the skipper, Fabian Klos, in attack, forcing Janni Serra out of the starting line-up when Arminia take on Dortmund in their 9th appearance of the season. Andrade remains in doubt for this fixture following a hamstring injury.

The German Bundesliga fixture, Arminia Bielefeld vs. Bayer 04 Leverkusen, kicks off at 18:30 (GMT+1) on Sunday, October 3 at the Bielefelder Alm.

Without continental football, Arminia Bielefeld returns to Bundesliga action after last weekend's defeat to Union Berlin at the Alter Forsterei. Living dangerously, Arminia were lucky not to concede before the break as several clear-cut chances went by, with Union Berlin failing to convert. The visitors held on tightly to the stalemate, determined to earn a point, but a remarkable effort from Union's Kevin Behrens (88') separated both sides with two minutes left on the clock. A moment later, Behrens returned with a stunning effort which had the keeper beaten but halted by the crossbar. After failing to earn a point on Matchday 6, Bielefeld remains in 16th place with the Bundesliga form: DDLDL. Having no victories, the club has 4 points after 0W, 4D, & 2L. An average of 0.5 goals per game sees the home team with 3 goals in six Bundesliga appearances. At their end, the club has conceded 6 goals and thus has a goal difference of -3. Frank Kramer will continue in his hunt for his first win when he returns to the dugout on Sunday. A 4—2—3—1 formation with Klos in attack is expected against Bayer Leverkusen. A quick look at the injury list reveals Vasiliadis (ankle) is ruled out, while Czyborra (hip) and Fernandes (ill) are in doubt for this fixture.
