At first glance, the situation seems clear when the league leader receives an opponent who is only four points ahead of the bottom of the table in the current table of the 2nd Bundesliga. In fact, East Westphalia is not too much in its element at home. The fifth of the home table receives the ninth of the away table, which makes the duel look a little closer.
Five of the eleven games in the distance also lost the Hessian. The bookmaker at Bielefeld against Wiesbaden offers the best odds that ex-Arminia coach Rüdiger Rehm scores on his comeback on the mountain pasture, the odds comparison on a betting basis shows up.
No wonder, because with Bielefeld against Wiesbaden the forecast must also take into account the most recent run of the East Westphalia, which won all three home games in 2020, scored nine of their own goals and, above all, remained without conceding a goal.
Accordingly, everything in our eyes at Bielefeld against Wiesbaden speaks for tip 1, which we play as favorites with high stakes. By the way, further tips and forecasts for the 24th matchday of the second highest German division are available in the Betting Tips 2. Bundesliga section.
Bielefeld:
Although it was known that there was a lot of quality in the team, Arminia Bielefeld certainly did not start the 2019/20 season as a candidate for promotion. After all, the second highest German league is equipped with top-class players such as Stuttgart, Hamburg, Hanover and Nuremberg, all of whom want to go up.
In fact, the Arminia not only leads the table with a six point lead, it is already playing like a newcomer. Hannover 96 was defeated in the rain duel in the local SchücoArena in the style of a budding second division champion. The Neuhaus squad was the worse team for 75 minutes and did not create any offensive scene. Then it was enough to turn it up for a quarter of an hour to bag the flattering threesome.
The DSC got 13 out of 15 possible points from the last five games and is even at the top of the table, even after attacking rather disappointing games like the recent 1-0 against the Hanoverians, mainly because of the reliable defense.
Only 23 goals conceded the best defensive score in the entire league. In the five competitive games of 2020 there were only two goals conceded – both also in the 4-2 away win in Fürth. In the other four games, East Westphalia remained without conceding a goal.
Conversely, the offensive cannot be denied the quality either. With 48 goals this season, the black-white-blue finally occupy the top position in this ranking too – also because SSV Jahn Regensburg was just shot 6-0 from the SchücoArena on February 9, 2020.
No wonder that the odds of bookmakers in Bielefeld against Wiesbaden are clearly moving towards the home side. Although there were in fact only five home wins from the eleven matches in front of their own fans, all three home games were ultimately won without conceding in 2020.
Because the form of the day also seems to play only a subordinate role, as the recent work victory after poor performance against relegation Hannover 96 showed, there is currently very little talk against Uwe Neuhaus’ team.
Wiesbaden:
The SV Wehen Wiesbaden started the year 2020 with a solid yield of five out of 15 possible points, in which the surprising newcomer somehow still wants to keep the project going.
If this yield persists or can even be expanded, the chances are not that bad. After all, the relegation place is only two points away. The saving bank is also in sight at four meters.
The footballers from the Taunusstein have been a stumbling block many times, especially for the supposedly big players in the league. For example, in the run-up to his return to the Bielefelder Alm, coach Rüdiger Rehm, who himself once sat on the coaching bench of East Westphalia in 2016, refers to the previous duels between Hesse and current leaders.
SV Wehen Wiesbaden won 2-1 at VfB Stuttgart in the first half of the season, when the Swabians were temporarily on the sunny side before a 1-1 draw against the next league leader Hamburger SV was achieved. It is understandable, then, that the Hesse also promise something countable in the SchücoArena.
Nevertheless, it would be daring to place a tip on the Hessians only because of the results against VfB and HSV near Bielefeld against Wiesbaden. Although they are on a solid ninth place in the away table, the Wehener eventually lost five of the eleven games in the distance.
In addition, the 1-0 win over Aue in the first game of 2020 remained the only three in the new year so far. The Wiesbadeners go into this away game with four games without a win behind them, in which midfielder Patrick Schönfeld also fails.
In the last match abroad so far, the Hessians lost 1-0 to Jahn Regensburg. The team that was just sent home 6: 0 here on the pasture. This also bodes particularly badly if the East Westphalia should catch another good day …
PREDICTION: Arminia Bielefeld to win @ 1,53
