H2H: Arminia Bielefeld vs Bayern Munich – Score Prediction (Bundesliga

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Last month saw Jóan Símun Edmundsson come off the bench to score the winner in Bielefeld’s first Bundesliga home game in 11 years. In 2019/20, every one of his five strikes came during matches producing over 3.5 goals. Robert Lewandowski’s injury-time penalty vs Hertha Berlin (W 4-3) was an encore to his tenth Bundesliga hat-trick. Two-thirds (six) of his last nine hat trick-scoring Bundesliga matches have seen at least 66.67% of his goals on the day arrive in the second half. Going back to the opening day of 1984/85, each of Bielefeld’s last five home league defeats to Bayern have seen them fail to score before HT.

Arminia Bielefeld Insights.

Last victorious after trailing at HT in the Bundesliga back in November 2007, Arminia Bielefeld have scored first in two of their first three league games so far, with both strikes coming after a goalless first half. In fact, half (nine) of their last 18 league games across all tiers have yielded no first-half goals either way. The hosts’ all-time record from home league games vs ‘Die Roten’ stands at: W4, D2, L11. However, Bielefeld’s home league record against reigning champions of the day since the start of 2002/03 is much more positive, standing at: W3, D1, L2. Five of those six matches saw a level HT score, including four goalless first halves.

Bayern Munich Insights.

After a dramatic 4-3 win over Hertha Berlin, Bayern Munich’s average goal haul per league win since the end of sporting lockdown is 3.55. However, a recent shock 4-1 defeat at Hoffenheim halted Bayern’s run of Bundesliga away wins at ten, slashing their rate of average goals-per-game across their last ten away league games to 3.00. Bayern typically started quickly during that ten-game winning run on the road, scoring 72.0% of their last 25 goals across those wins in the first half. Meanwhile, Bayern’s average haul of goals per game across 11 all-time Bundesliga H2H away wins is 2.18, with ‘Die Roten’ splitting their goals 50/50 across halves therein.
