Arminia Bielefeld will begin their Bundesliga campaign with a clash against SC Freiburg on Saturday, and they will hope to start off on a winning note.

Both sides avoided upsets in the first round of the DFB Pokal, but Arminia Bielefeld had a whirlwind game against fourth-tier side Bayreuth.

Arminia Bielefeld eventually won the game 6-3 in what was a goal fest for the fans. Freiburg, on the other hand, picked up a routine 1-0 win against third division side Wurzburger Kickers.

After securing promotion to the Bundesliga in 2020, Arminia did well to finish above the bottom three. The target will be to remain in the top-flight once again.

Freiburg, on the other hand, will hope to push for a European place this time around after finishing 10th last season.
