INTO THE FINAL 10...

The home side are in front but Hertha are pressing. At the moment, the chances aren't coming quickly for the away side though and Bielefeld are looking comfortable.

THE DIFFERENCE-MAKER

Yabo's first Bundesliga goal is the difference here heading into the final 10 minutes.
72'

DOUBLE CHANGE

Netz is on, as is Zeefuik, with Pekarik and Darida off with 20 minutes to play.
70'

OFF THE POST!

Doan dribbles his way forward through midfield and curls a cracking shot at goal which bounces back out off the far post. Bielefeld so close to a two-goal lead.
66'

PIATEK IS ON

The Hertha striker who's scored all four of his Bundesliga goals so far as a substitute is on.
64'

WHAT A HIT FROM YABO!

Bielefeld lead and it's a moment of brilliance from Yabo. A long throw-in is flicked to the back post, Yabo nudges Mittelstädt away before smashing the ball into the top corner past Schwolow with a lovely left-footed hit.

DOAN HAS A GO!

The Japanese international battles past Mittelstädt and Ngankam before shooting across goal, but Schwolow beats it out for a corner. More and more attacking play coming here.
53'

LAURSEN DOWN

The challenge from Pekarik was a strong one on Laursen, but he's back up and looks like he wants to continue.
51'

PEKARIK BOOKED

A caution for Pekarik, the first of the game for Hertha.
49'

CORDOVA GOES CLOSE!

A mix-up in defence from Alderete as he goes to clear the ball and totally misses it. Cordova latches onto the loose ball and rounds Schwolow, but can't find the target with his shot.
46'

BACK UNDERWAY!

The ball is rolling again with a second half substitution from Hertha, Ngankam on for Plattenhardt.

KLOS AT THE OTHER END

Hartel crosses from the left and Klos rises above Alderete to meet it, but he can't angle the header down. This game beginning to open up slightly at the end of the first half.
41'

MITTELSTÄDT FROM RANGE

Another piece of work for Ortega, who watches all the way as Mittelstädt shoots from the edge of the Arminia box.
35'

BIELEFELD PENALTY RULED OUT

Stark is adjudged to have brought down Klos in the box and Bielefeld have a penalty. Video-Assist has a lengthy check and overturns the decision, and Stark's card is taken away. Not enough contact on Klos to award a penalty.

PIATEK WAITING

Hertha's striker waiting on the bench has scored all four of his Bundesliga goals so far as a substitute. Look at for him to come on and make an impact if Hertha are looking for inspiration in the second half.

The first yellow card of the game comes for Bielefeld, with Lauresen cautioned for a foul on Lukebakio.

HERTHA FORCING THINGS

Hertha have most of the possession but have been forcing it forward too quickly, looking for Cordoba and pace on the wings. Just two shots on targets so far despite having the better of this game.
16'

SCRAPPY GAME

Hertha have looked better than Bielefeld going forward, but have still been unable to produce a clear-cut chance on goal or force Ortega into difficult work. At the other end, Bielefeld have been probing but so far Hertha's defence is in control.
12'

HERTHA PLAYING WIDE

The visitors spreading the pitch as much as possible so far here, with Mittelstädt, Plattenhardt, Lukebakio and Pekarik on either flank.
10'

CORDOBA MISCUES

More attacking movement from Hertha down the left with Plattenhardt and Mittelstädt and the chance comes to Cordoba in front of goal, but his mishits his shot and it's another simple one for Ortega. A shout of frustration from him after that.
7'

EARLY CHANCE!

Pekarik does well to reach a long ball forward into the Bielefeld box and cuts back into the middle. Lukebakio and Cordoba almost get in each other's way as they clip the ball goalward, but it loops up for an easy take for Ortega.
4'

BRIGHT START FOR THE HOSTS

Bielefeld keeping the majority of the ball here in the opening periods but Hertha are pressing well against them, looking to force mistakes from their hosts.

HERE WE GO!

The ball is rolling for the final game of the weekend's action in Bielefeld.
Kick-off!

BIELEFELD FINE WITH BERLIN

Arminia are unbeaten in each of their last five meetings with Hertha at home in the Bundesliga (W3, D2).

BACK IN THE BUNDESLIGA!

This is the first Bundesliga meeting between Arminia and Hertha since 2008/09. In their last seven competitive meetings with Arminia, Hertha have suffered just a single defeat and that came after a penalty shootout in the 2014/15 DFB Cup.

HERTHA TEAM NEWS

Club captain Dedryck Boyata remains out with a foot injury, so Paraguayan Omar Alderete continues in the centre of defence alongside stand-in skipper Niklas Stark. Elsewhere, Matheus Cunha misses the game on Sunday with a groin problem which sees Maximilian Mittelstädt come into his place.

BIELFELD TEAM NEWS

Uwe Neuhaus makes some switches to his defence with Joakim Nilsson and Jacob Laursen coming in. Hertha loanee Arne Maier is eligible against his parent club from the bench but has only made three appearances so far for Arminia.
