THE PREDICTION
Arminia Bielefeld have collected more wins in their last five Bundesliga games than they did in all 12 before that. Their 3-0 victory at home to Stuttgart on Wednesday was their biggest of the campaign, and also the first time this season the division’s lowest scorers have hit the net more than twice in a game. Their recent upturn in form has been largely based on a solid defence, who have conceded just one goal in those five matches. They have shown they can frustrate a lot of teams in the Bundesliga, and will now be looking to do the same against Andre Silva, Luka Jovic and Co on Saturday. Eintracht Frankfurt have also improved defensively in recent weeks, conceding four goals in their last five league outings, so the two sides may well cancel each other out and play out a low-scoring contest.
