LATE PRESSURE FROM HERTHA

The home side are putting some late pressure on the Bielefeld defence here...
90'

ADDED TIME!

We'll have four minutes of time added on at the end of this game.
89'

DILROSUN STRIKES ONE!

Ascacibar's cross from the right comes back to Dilrosun 25 yards from goal, and he lines up a powerful strike which he keeps on target. But once again, Ortega is in front of it to keep the scores level.
87'

LUCOQUI BOOKED

The Bielefeld left-back brings down Cordoba on the break.
86'

BIG DAY FROM KLOS

Bielefeld's captain and big man up top certainly did his job battling the Berlin defence.

DOUBLE CHANGE

Klos and Doan come off with just a few minutes to play, with the fresh legs of Schipplock and Gebauer coming on.
81'

TIRED LEGS OUT THERE NOW

Bielefeld have covered over 100km as a team, and you can see that both teams have some tired legs out there with less than 10 minutes to play. Both sides might actually be happier settling for a draw at this stage.
74'

OKUGAWA COMES OFF

A knock for the Bielefeld man sees him replaced by Kunze in midfield.
73'

DOUBLE CHANGE

Darida comes on for Piatek while Boyata replaces Tousart for the hosts.
72'

INTO THE FINAL 20...

As things stand, Bielefeld will remain in the relegation play-off spot but extend their lead ahead of Cologne to two points. Hertha will jump up to 14th on goal difference, level on points with Bremen.
70'

DILROSUN NOT FAR OFF!

Lovely play from the substitute who dribbles past Prietl in midfield before lashing a left-footed shot across goal from 20 yards, but this one is wide of the mark.
67'

HERTHA FINDING THEIR WAY

The home side are beginning to dictate this game once again, slowing the play down with possession in defence and looking for Piatek and Cordoba to link up in attack. Both are providing problems for the Bielefeld backline with their strength on the ball.

THIS ONE IS ON A KNIFE EDGE

Hertha have had a quiet start to the second half, with Bielefeld on the front foot. As we enter the final 30, it really can go either way.
59'

OFF COMES CUNHA

It's Dilrosun who is on to replace the Brazilian.
59'

CUNHA DOWN

The Brazilian forward looks like he may have to come off here after a knock to his right ankle.
58'

BIELEFELD ON TOP

The away side have been by far the better side so far in this second half, with Hertha yet to have an attempt on Ortega's goal.
56'

BIG CHANCE!

Maier's corner curls towards the back post and Pieper is all alone to send a powerful header at goal. Schwolow saves the first attempt but the ball springs out in front of him and in front of goal. The Hertha goalkeeper is able to recover and grab the second attempt in front of a Bielefeld player.
55'

VOGLSAMMER THE MAIN MAN

Despite top scorers Doan and Klos being on the pitch, it's been Voglsammer who has had the most attempts on goal so far for Bielefeld.

BRUNNER BOOKED

Bielefeld's right-back brings down Radonjic on the run and he is shown a yellow.
50'

DOAN ON THE HUNT

Some lovely dribbling from Doan on the right, cutting in past Dardai by nutmegging him. He's caught up by three Hertha defenders in the end and concedes a goal kick, but Bielefeld's key to victory here may lie with him.
46'

BACK UNDERWAY!

A change at the break for the hosts with Radonjic - who scored in midweek against Freiburg - on for Zeefuik.
Kick-off!

CORDOBA'S TURN!

Chances flowing at the end of the first half with Ascacibar playing Cordoba in down the right over the Bielefeld defence. He fires a powerful shot at the near post but only finds the side-netting.
45'
+ 5

VOGLSAMMER AGAIN!

The Bielefeld forward is flicked in on goal to the right but he slices his shot high and wide past Schwolow's goal. Both sides lacking a bit of a clinical touch in front of goal.
45'
+ 1

PIATEK NOT FAR AWAY

Zeefiuik wins a header on the right to send the ball in behind the Bielefeld defence. Piatek is racing onto it, but just can't get the ball under control before Ortega comes out to claim it in front of goal.
45'

ADDED TIME

After the earlier break in play, we'll have six minutes of added time at the end of the first half.
38'

HERTHA IN CONTROL

Bielefeld have looked more dangerous in front of goal at the other end, but it's Hertha who are dictating the play as we come towards the end of the first half.

PRIETL BOOKED

Prietl joins Tousart in Bastian Dinkert's book for a foul on Cunha.

TOUSART BOOKED

A handball against Tousart earns him a yellow card.
34'

CORDOBA OFF THE POST!

That's the closest we've come to a goal so far as Cordoba turns past Pieper on the left before dribbling into the area. Nilsson closes him down and he falls as he comes forward, but is still able to get a shot away from his backside which drifts past Ortega and off the near post before being cleared in front of goal.
33'

CLASS FROM ORTEGA

The Bielefeld goalkeeper shows off his skill on the ball as he Cruyff turns past Zeefuik before pinging a long ball forward.
32'

EARLY CHANGE

Mittelstädt can't continue after the earlier knock to his head and Torunarigha comes on for him.

PRIETL ON TARGET!

Another chance for Bielefeld with the away side finding some joy going forward. Doan battles in midfield with the ball running loose for Prietl to strike with his left from 25 yards and Schwolow is forced to tip that one over his crossbar.
26'

VOGLSAMMER CLOSE!

Bielefeld break forward down the left with Maier finding Voglsammer on the edge of Hertha's area. There are bodies in front of him, but he's able to get a curling shot away on target which forces Schwolow to save.
25'

HERTHA ON TOP

The hosts enjoying far more of the possession here in the opening 25 minutes, with most of their attacks coming down the left. Bielefeld have been on the back foot but have had chances of their own as well. It's a tight and nervy affair to start.
camera-photo

ZEEFUIK ON THE MOVE!

The Dutchman has been heavily involved here so far down the left, causing problems for Brunner at right-back for Bielefeld.
20'

GETTING CLOSER

Hertha break quickly and the ball is played across the Bielefeld area to Zeefuik on the left. He has to cut back and in the end finds Cunha, but his shot is deflected into the grateful arms of Ortega.
18'

PRIETL NOT FAR OFF

The Bielefeld midfielder breaks through the middle with space ahead of him to shoot at goal. He slices this one, but it's not far away at all, with Schwolow diving to his left to make sure it goes wide.
17'

BACK UNDERWAY

After around six minutes, we're back underway here in Berlin. Lucoqui is back on the pitch, while Mittelstädt will be joining any second.
15'

LENGTHY BREAK

Mittelstädt has just got to his feet after being bandaged up by the physio team of Hertha, but he may still not be able to continue here.
11'

CLASH OF HEADS

Lucoqui and Mittelstädt are both down after a clash of heads in the air, with the Bielefeld defender appearing to come off the better of the two.
10'

NILSSON NOT FAR OFF!

A corner swings into the Hertha area from Hertha loanee - Arne Maier - against his former club, and it's Nilsson up from the back who has a free header from 10 yards. He can't keep this one on target, though.
8'

GOOD EFFORT FROM MITTELSTÄDT!

Hertha break superbly after Piatek and Cordoba combine to send Mittelstädt into space down the right. He cuts inside onto his favoured left foot and fires a shot for goal from the edge of the area, but Ortega is across to make a good save.
7'

OKUGAWA DOWN

A knock for the Japanese forward after running into Cunha off the ball, but he's back up and should be able to carry on.
3'

DOAN ON TARGET

The first effort on goal of the game comes Bielefeld's way, with Doan forcing a save from Schwolow with his shot from the edge of the area.
2'

SWAPPING WINGS

Interestingly, Zeefuik - a right-back by trade - is starting on the left with Mittelstädt - a left-sided player by trade - is starting on the right. Neither player on the side of the pitch they're used to. A new tactic from Dardai.
1'

HERE WE GO!

The ball is rolling in Berlin for this huge game at the bottom of the table, with just one point between these two sides just above the automatic relegation places.
Kick-off!

HERTHA'S BOGEY TEAMS?

Hertha are winless in three games against promoted clubs so far this season (D1, L2), but are unbeaten in their last 12 meetings with Arminia on home soil, including eight in the Bundesliga.

DARDAI: "WE'RE IN GOOD SPIRITS"

"We went into quarantine on the back of a positive result and tried to make the best of that period. We've come out of it well and are obviously in good spirits after the Freiburg win," said the Hertha coach this week.

BIELEFELD'S BERLIN BLOWS

Otto Rehhagel was the last Bielefeld coach to win a Bundesliga match at Hertha - way back in October 1978.

FINDING FORM UNDER DARDAI?

The Old Lady have averaged 0.90 points per game across 10 matches since Dardai returned as coach, compared to 0.89 over their previous 18 fixtures of the current season under predecessor Labbadia. The midweek win over Freiburg was a huge momentum push.

WATCH: BIELEFELD 1-0 HERTHA - REVERSE FIXTURE

Reinhold Yabo's late goal was all that separated these two sides in their meeting earlier this season.

HERTHA TEAM NEWS

Cordoba and Cunha came on from the bench against Freiburg, with Piatek starting and scoring the first of that game for which Pal Dardai made nine changes to field a rotated side. Dardai's rotation plan comes in again, with many of the players who were rested against Freiburg in midweek returning to start on Sunday. Meanwhile, Guendouzi, who was substituted in the first half with a foot injury, picked up his fifth yellow card of the season so is unavailable.

BIELEFELD TEAM NEWS

Arminia have Brunner and Cordova available once more. The former - suspended against Gladbach - is a straight swap for de Medina, who picked up a fifth yellow card of the season while filling in for Brunner at right-back last time out. Cordova misses out all together, meanwhile.
