DSC Arminia Bielefeld v Holstein Kiel : Bundesliga 2 match betting preview, prediction and odds

Fri 23rd Jan, 17:30 BST, Schücoarena, Bielefeld

Marcel Rapp is aiming for a precious away win in the Bundesliga 2 on Friday evening, as he takes his Holstein Kiel side to the Schücoarena to visit DSC Arminia Bielefeld and Michél Kniat. Bundesliga 2 statistics are the backbone of the predictions you'll find below, with head-to-head performance included too. You can view it all, with data visualisations and odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers available for the biggest betting markets via the tabs.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Arminia and Holstein will score 2 or more goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Michél Kniat or Marcel Rapp has served up too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.22 equating to roughly a 78% probability.
