Arminia Bielefeld welcome Karlsruher SC at SchuecoArena, Bielefeld on Sunday, Jan 24 at 1:30 PM in a 2. Bundesliga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Arminia Bielefeld come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Karlsruher SC, meanwhile, arrive out of form (1W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Arminia Bielefeld face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Karlsruher SC have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Arminia Bielefeld won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 4.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Arminia Bielefeld a slight edge, but Karlsruher SC are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
