In this week 16 match on Nov 8th, Paderborn will host Arminia Bielefeld at Benteler-arena in a clash of these two extremely mismatched 2. Bundesliga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 13 degrees, a perfect day for football. 3rd placed Paderborn is fresh off their 2-3 loss against Hamburger SV. Robert Leipertz struck first for Paderborn in the 3rd minute on a feed from Marvin Pieringer, then Robert Glatzel tied it up for Hamburger SV in the 23rd minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 69th minute on a goal by László Bénes. With 17 points in their last 10 matches Paderborn should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Arminia Bielefeld recorded a 0-1 loss against Greuther Fürth. Armindo Sieb struck first for Greuther Fürth in the 30th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Arminia Bielefeld was frustrated by Greuther Fürth’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Greuther Fürth ended the match with the shutout victory. Arminia Bielefeld is looking for direction having earned 11 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Paderborn is glad to have Robert Leipertz in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 4 goals.
