Arminia Bielefeld vs Greuther Furth prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22
The Bundesliga returns this weekend and will see Arminia Bielefeld host Greuther Furth at the Schuco-Arena on Sunday in a bottom-of-the-table clash.
Arminia Bielefeld have begun picking up results recently as they target a third consecutive season in the German top-flight. They held third-place Freiburg to a 2-2 draw last time out, fighting back from a two-goal deficit via goals from Masaya Okugawa and Bryan Lasme to pick up a point.
The hosts sit 17th in the league table with 17 points from 18 games. They will be looking to build on their newfound form on Sunday as they look to exit the relegation zone.
Greuther Furth's struggles in the top-flight continued last time out as they held on for a goalless draw against Stuttgart last Saturday. They are now winless in their last three league outings since their shock 1-0 victory over Union Berlin last month.
Greuther Furth sit bottom of the table with just six points picked up so far this season. They will be looking to pull off a win when they play on Sunday.
