Arminia Bielefeld vs TSG Hoffenheim Predictions

• Arminia Bielefeld have suffered just two defeats across their last eight league games
• Hoffenheim have won only two of their last 15 away league games
• Arminia Bielefeld have recorded back-to-back 1-0 home league wins

Arminia Bielefeld can enhance their survival claims

Arminia Bielefeld are putting up a bold fight in their pursuit of Bundesliga survival and they look good value to claim three precious points at home to Hoffenheim.

The hosts currently occupy the relegation playoff place, but only goal difference separates them and 15th-placed Werder Bremen.

Arminia Bielefeld have suffered just two defeats across their last eight league games and, even then, those reverses came against highflying duo Leipzig and Borussia Monchengladbach.

Frank Kramer’s troops have recorded consecutive 1-0 home wins against Freiburg and Schalke and they have also defended resolutely in recent goalless draws at Augsburg and Hertha Berlin.

And it is that defensive discipline that should stand them in good stead hosting mid-table Hoffenheim, who have less motivation to fight for the points.

Sebastian Hoeness’s side have won only two of their last 15 away league games and they are currently on a seven-match winless run on the road.

Hoffenheim have failed to score in two of their last four away games at Stuttgart and Leipzig and may find it tough to breach an Arminia Bielefeld side desperate for points.

With that in mind, we predict the hosts to triumph and are opting for them to record a slender 1-0 win, just as they have in each of their last two home league games.
