VfB Stuttgart vs. Arminia Bielefeld
The European league is in full swing. By now, roughly a third of the season has already been played. In the case of the German Bundesliga, this means that the 11th matchday will be played next weekend. Our Stuttgart – Bielefeld tip will tell you everything you need to know about this match.
Both Stuttgart and Bielefeld are currently in the bottom of the table. After the ten match days already played, it is safe to say that both will be fighting to stay in the league this season. Stuttgart is superior to Bielefeld in principle, but the Swabians are currently in an absolute slump in form, which is probably due to the many injuries. Bielefeld, on the other hand, are still without a win this season. As a result, they are just ahead of Fürth in penultimate place in the table.

Stuttgart Form & Balance Check
VfB Stuttgart have been dogged by injury woes since the start of the season. Regular attacker Kalajdzic suffered a long-term injury directly in the first games. Nevertheless, the Swabians have had a relatively successful start to the season. With four points from the first four games, those responsible were reasonably satisfied. In addition, VfB remained unbeaten for four games before the defeat against Augsburg. Everything indicated that things were looking up. The start in Augsburg also went well. Very early on, Chris Führich lived up to his name and scored the lead. However, it didn’t take long before coach Matarazzo had to make two changes due to injury. On the one hand, goal scorer Führich, on the other hand, defender Kempf. After that, nothing worked in Stuttgart’s game and the disaster took its course.
The Bundesliga B eleven
It’s hard to believe the injury misfortune Stuttgart have had this season. As already mentioned, Kalajdzic got injured very early in the season. In addition, Mvumpa (Silas), who has also been injured for a long time, is a key player. In the end, things came to a head. In addition to the fact that regular goalkeeper Flo Müller was out because of Corona, shooting star Mavropanos, newcomer Marmoush, defender Kempf, Millot, Egloff, Massimo, Thommy, Sankoh, Führich and Cissé are on the injured list. So the term “B eleven” is not that far-fetched. Nevertheless, Stuttgart are doing well so far and some players are about to make their comeback.
Stuttgart facts & Analysis

– Use of Müller, Kempf and Mavropanos possible (descending probability)
Bielefeld Form & Balance Check
The Arminia from Bielefeld is currently rather below average on the road. To date, the Arminen have not been able to pick up a single win this season. The only point wins came in draws against Freiburg, Fürth, Frankfurt, Hoffenheim and Augsburg. Most recently, the Bielefeld side even managed to pick up just one point from five games. This record is more than frightening. Bielefeld need to get points as soon as possible to avoid relegation. In addition, it must be mentioned that they have the weakest offensive in the league. They have not yet managed to score more than one goal in a Bundesliga match. So you can see that there are a lot of construction sites at Bielefeld. Nevertheless, they now have the chance to finally get their first win of the season against Stuttgart, who are weakened by injuries.
Even the rock is shaking
The talk is of Amos Pieper. The usually sovereign central defender and Arminia’s head of defence has surprisingly already allowed himself a few serious mistakes this season. According to the opinions of some experts, Pieper seems overplayed and exhausted. The international break will do not only him, but the whole Arminia a lot of good. There they can gather new strength to realise their mission to stay in the league.
Bielefeld facts & analysis
– Bielefeld still without a win this season
– 5 draws and 5 defeats
– Weakest offence
– Never scored more than one goal per game
Predicted lineup – last update on November 4, 2021
The system mirrors both teams. Both will play in a 3-1-4-2. So they are very flexible in the defence with the 3/5 chain. In addition, Stuttgart will have to do without many injured players. For example, Chris Führich will be missing. However, Kempf and Müller are expected to be fit in time.
