Arminia Bielefeld
Arminia Bielefeld are currently third from the bottom and look like serious candidates for dropping out. However, they significantly improved their form in the recent weeks and are currently unbeaten in four straight matches. They drew away against Wurzburger Kickers, and won against Kaiserslautern, Fortuna Dusseldorf and SV Sandhausen in their most recent four games. They need at least three wins from their remaining six matches to potentially avoid relegation, but Vfb Stuttgart does not look like a team they can beat at the moment.
Interestingly, Arminia Bielefeld are also unbeaten in five straight home games, recording three wins and two draws. In each of their last three home games they scored two or more goals.
Vfb Stuttgart
Vfb Stuttgart profited the most from last week`s results, and climbed up again to the top of the 2.Bundesliga. They were winless in five straight matches, before winning last week with 2-0 against Karlsruher SC, so they are in pretty good position at the moment.
This game is of very big importance for Vfb Stuttgart and they need to win it. Next week they have a potentially decisive match against their promotion rivals Union Berlin, so if they drop points here they will complicate their position.
Vfb Stuttgart`s recent away form has been shaky, as they recorded just two wins in their last six away games. They are currently without an away win in three games, losing against Greuther Furth and drawing against Eintracht Braunschweig and 1860 Munchen.we will go with the home team to get the points. They are long overdue a win and are playing a team that don’t travel well and have the same level as them. Home win here.
