Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Arminia Bielefeld will look to escape the relegation zone when they take on Bochum on Friday evening. Die Arminien played out a 1-1 draw with Hertha at the weekend, but this has to go down as a must-win game for the visitors as they take on Leipzig on the last day of the season. All Bryan Lasme, Cedric Brunner, and Fabian Klos are sidelined with injuries for the away team.
Bochum, on the other hand, did well to beat Borussia Dortmund 4-3 at Signal-Iduna-Park on Matchday 32 to climb to 12th place in the standings. The hosts are eyeing a top-ten finish, but seeing that Arminia want this win more than Bochum, we are tempted to put our money on Marco Kostmann’s troops. In the first half of the season Arminia Bielefeld defeated Bochum 2-0, which is yet another reason why away win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
