RB Leipzig will be without influential defender Dayot Upamecano for Friday's trip to Arminia Bielefeld. Read our reasons for Bielefeld vs Leipzig prediction and betting tips.
It's not just Upamecano's absence that'll fuel Bielefeld's optimism of getting a result at home to Leipzig. Arminia ended a seven-match winless run with their 2-1 victory over Bayer Leverkusen - a result that lifted them out of the bottom three, one point above the relegation play-off spot now occupied by Hertha Berlin. It proved a case of third-time lucky for new head coach Frank Kramer, who had previously overseen a goalless draw with Union Berlin and 2-0 defeat to Werder Bremen.
Japanese duo Ritsu Doan and Masaya Okugawa scored the goals in Leverkusen, while captain Fabian Klos was recalled in the lone striker's role. Christian Gebauer was preferred in midfield to Fabian Kunze, but left-back Jacob Laursen missed out through injury. Anderson Lucoqui came in and could continue in what may well be an unchanged starting line-up for the first time since Kramer replaced Uwe Neuhaus in the dug-out.
Bielefeld: Ortega - Brunner, Pieper, Nilsson, Lucoqui - Maier, Prietl - Doan, Okuwaga, Gebauer - Klos (c)
Out: Edmundsson (muscular), Laursen (thigh), Soukou (knock), Yabo (knock)
Doubtful: Laursen (thigh)
Coach: Frank Kramer
Leipzig fell four points behind leaders Bayern Munich after being pegged back to a 1-1 draw by Eintracht Frankfurt. Upamecano went off inside the opening 30 minutes with a right thigh injury and isn't expected to return until after the March international break. Head coach Julian Nagelsmann turned to Lukas Klostermann following the Bayern Munich-bound central defender's withdrawal but has further alternatives in Ibrahima Konate and even versatile US international Tyler Adams.
Christopher Nkunku and Dani Olmo were introduced in the second half, and will likely be reinstated in midfield. Emil Forsberg - who opened the scoring - and Roma loanee Justin Kluivert are candidates to make way, though much depends on whether or not Nagelsmann sticks with a front two of Alexander Sorloth and Yussuf Poulsen. Kevin Kampl is another option in central midfield, but left-back Angelino remains on the sidelines.
Leipzig: Gulacsi (c) - Mukiele, Orban, Klostermann - Adams, Haidara, Kampl, Nkunku - Olmo - Sörloth, Poulsen
Out: Angelino (muscular), Laimer (match fitness), Szoboszlai (groin), Upamecano (thigh)
Doubtful: -
Coach: Julian Nagelsmann

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
