Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Arminia Bielefeld: match statistics
This match shapes up to be a tight contest between two teams in poor form. Fortuna Düsseldorf sits in 16th place with only a 22% home win rate, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game and failing to score in 44% of home fixtures. Arminia Bielefeld also shows poor away form with just a 13% win rate and a five-match winless streak (0.4 points per game). Both teams have a negative goal difference in their respective conditions, and xG stats are very similar (1.38 vs 1.48).
