Relegation-threatened Arminia Bielefeld host Werder Bremen in a Bundesliga clash on Sunday.

Arminia are currently in 16th position in the Bundesliga, occupying the relegation playoff spot at the moment. They have 17 points form 19 games, and have seen a slump in form hit them at the wrong time of the season.

They have lost both their last two games in the league, after gaining seven points from the three games before that.

In their last game, Arminia fell to a brace from Marius Wolf as they lost 3-1 to FC Koln.

Bremen are just five points ahead of Bielefeld at the moment, and are in 11th place. After a decent start to the season that saw them challenging near the European qualification spots, Bremen have tapered off lately.

They only stayed in the Bundesliga by winning the relegation playoff last year. They will be determined to ensure that they leave a gap between themselves and the bottom three.

In their last league game, Bremen managed a point against rock-bottom Schalke at home, with the game finishing 1-1. Kevin Mohwald scored late in the second half to spare their blushes and earn them a point in that game.

After that, Werder made it through to the next round of the DFB-Pokal with a 2-0 win over Greuther Furth in midweek.
