ADDED TIME
We'll have three minutes of added time at the end of this game. Last chance for a winner for either side.
85'
FRESH LEGS
A defensive switch from Urs Fischer as Gentner comes on for Kruse.
82'
ANOTHER ENDO CHANCE!
An even better chance for Endo than the last one as he's found all alone in front of goal after fine work on the right by Musa. He hits a first-time shot on target but Ortega makes a fantastic reflex save low to his right.
80'
A LATE LUCKY PUNCH?
No Bielefeld home game this season has ended in a draw. Unless we have a late winner, that record will be changing this evening.
80'
TRIPLE CHANGE
WIth 10 minutes to play, Hartel, Schipplock and de Medina all come on for the home side.
75'
HUGE CHANCE FOR ENDO!
Union are well on top here now and it's a big chance for the substitute. Friedrich's pass from midfield sends him in behind on the left and he's into the area before he opens his body to shoot past Ortega, looking for the far bottom corner. It beats the 'keeper but just continues to slide past the post with too much power behind it in the end.
74'
UNION DOING THEIR BUSINESS
73'
GOOD CHANCE!
Trimmel is the man with the cross as usual but this one is with his left, but doesn't take anything away from its quality. It reaches Musa in the middle, but his header is wayward and floats over the crossbar.
71'
BÜLTER ON TARGET!
Bülter weaves his way into the Bielefeld area from the right and turns onto his left to fire a shot at goal. It's on target and there are Union players lurking for a rebound, but Ortega makes a good save and holds on to it.
65'
DOAN ON
Bielefeld's joint-top scorer is on here, replacing Vlap for the final 25 minutes.
63'
DOUBLE CHANGE
Endo is on and into midfield, while Musa replaces Pohjanpalo in attack.

60'
KRUSE ISOLATED
It's been a real struggle for Kruse and Pohjanpalo in the Union attack so far. No shots between them, and less than 30 touches of the ball between them. Defence has certainly won the day so far.
56'
PRESSING HIGH
The home side are pushing and pushing here, keeping Union under pressure around their own penalty area. It's just so difficult for either side to create clear-cut chances.
51'
BIG CHANCE!
Bülter is on the end of Trimmel's dinked cross into the Bielefeld area and he heads the ball back at goal from the penalty spot. It's looping towards goal, but Ortega dives across goal to make a fine save, his first of the game.
49'
DANGEROUS START
The home side making a positive start to this game with Voglsammer looking dangerous down the right. Trimmel is in the right place to clear away his cross into the middle which was heading for Vlap in front of goal.
46'
BACK UNDERWAY!
No changes at the break in Bielefeld as we get the second half underway.

STRONG DEFENCES
It has to be said, this first half has been a battle between two very strong defences. Kramer has only had a few days to work with his new squad but it's clear to see they have been working on defensive structure and shape.

10 MINUTES OF ADDED TIME!
As expected, a lengthy period to play at the end of the first half after the injuries early on.

ON THE FRONT FOOT
The hosts have had less of the ball so far, but they've produced by far the better chances. Momentum is going their way, although Union are quick to relieve the pressure once they do get the ball.
33'
GOOD CHANCE!
Voglsammer has a touch of space on the right of the Union area and fires a low shot at goal. Luthe saves but can't hold onto it with Bielefeld players lurking in front of him looking for a rebound. Luckily his defence is there to clear ahead of them.
29'
CORDOVA OFF
The Venezuelan forward can't continue here and Voglsammer is on in his place.
27'
ANOTHER CLASH OF HEADS
Cordova and Friedrich go head-to-head in the air this time and the Bielefeld forward has a few minutes of treatment, but is back up and on to continue with less than half an hour still played here.

UNION FINDING THEIR FEET
A strange start to this game with Luthe and Ryerson down for so long, but the away side are getting into the game. They've enjoyed most of the early possession since Cordova's chance. Kruse and Pohjanpalo not on the ball as often as they would like, though.
14'
HUGE CHANCE!
Cordova is found in behind the Union defence after a beautiful reverse pass from Prietl. He takes a touch to compose himself before firing a shot at goal but in that time, Luthe races off his line to close him down and make a big save with his right leg.
11'
BOTH TO CONTINUE
Ryerson and Luthe are both patched up and are going to continue here as we finally get back underway after a 7-minute break. We'll wait and see if they can both continue.
6'
STOP IN PLAY HERE
Luthe and Ryerson are still down here taking treatment in the Union penalty area. A few minutes have gone by now and Union may have to make some early changes.
4'
PLAYES DOWN
A big collision between Luthe and Ryerson as the Union 'keeper comes out to clear a free-kick with a punch. They clash heads and both are down with head injuries here.
2'
THREE AT THE BACK
It's a three-man defence for Union with Trimmel on the right of the back three, with Friedrich and Knoche alongside him. Ryerson is higher up the left side, with Bülter and Ingvartsen supporting Kruse and Pohjanpalo in attack from opposite flanks.

HERE WE GO!
The ball is rolling in the final game of this Bundesliga weekend with Union getting us underway.
キックオフ
FRANK KRAMER IN CHARGE
It's been a week of change in Bielefeld with Uwe Neuhaus relieved of his duties and Frank Kramer brought in for him. Kramer was previously part of Germany's youth set-up, coaching their U18, U19 and U20 teams in recent seasons. The former Red Bull Salzburg youth academy director has signed on a two-and-a-half-year deal.
TALE OF THE TAPE
A win today for Union would see them pull within two points of Borussia Dortmund, who sit one place above them in sixth. It's been a remarkable season for the club only playing in its second-ever Bundesliga campaign. Bielefeld, meanwhile, are fighting for their lives at the bottom. Mainz's point at Schalke means they start the day second-bottom on goal difference, but any point will take them back into the relegation/promotion play-off spot. They are three points off out-and-out safety.
NO SECOND-SEASON SYNDROME
Union have only lost four of 23 matches in this their second season of Bundesliga football. They suffered 17 defeats in their debut campaign, finishing 11th.

ARMINIA STRONGEST AT HOME
Arminia have claimed 12 of their 18 points this season on home soil, winning two of their last five at the Schüco Arena.
KRUSE BACK = GOALS!
Kruse is Union's best man for goals with seven - plus five assists - despite missing 12 league games through injury. He returned for the first time since December last weekend and scored from the penalty spot.

ARMINIA TEAM NEWS
Doan has got three league goals for Bielefeld this season, with two of them coming in crucial home wins over Mainz on Matchday 10 and VfB Stuttgart on Matchday 17, but drops out of the side for Cordova. Vlap replaces Kunze, while Maier earns a rare start at the expense of Hartel. Okugawa, who knows Kramer from his Red Bull Salzburg days, also starts.
UNION TEAM NEWS
Union keeper Karius started the last three matches after biding his time for an opening, conceding just one goal since coming into the team, but drops out of the side to accommodate the return of first-choice netminder Luthe. Ryerson is preferred to Schlotterbeck in defence, while Bülter comes in for injured midfielder Lenz. Kruse scored from the penalty spot in the 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim last week, and his recent return to full fitness could be all the more important given that fellow forward Awoniyi is likely to miss another few weeks.
