Impact Schopf missed training Tuesday with an illness, though Bielefeld didn't offer any specifics about the illness. Schopf will hope to make his way back onto the pitch for a Saturday clash with Leipzig, in what may be Bielefeld's final Bundesliga match, at least for this stint in the top flight. Schopf missing would be a major loss for the side who are almost guaranteed relegation heading into the final matchday.

Bielefeld loses to Bochum, on brink of Bundesliga relegation

Arminia Bielefeld is on the brink of Bundesliga relegation after conceding late to lose at Bochum 2-1

Stefan Ortega - Brilliant in defeat Ortega made eight saves during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Ortega received a nod as a finalist for the Bundesliga goalkeeper of the year, and showed why Friday. Despite a near guarantee of relegation Ortega has once again shown that he is a brilliant goalkeeper and well-worth a spot in the Bundesliga. In his last four matches Ortega has faced 30 shots and made 21 saves, despite an absolutely awful defense in front of him giving up high-danger chances non-stop. Ortega will close this stint in the Bundesliga next time out, against RB Leipzig.

Patrick Wimmer - Busy yet again Wimmer made six tackles and sent in four crosses during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Wimmer has consistently filled the stat sheet on both sides of the ball for Bielefeld and will be a major loss for the relegation-bound side. The attacking midfielder has already agreed a move to Wolfsburg, where he will compete for a spot in one of the most promising young attacks in Germany. Wimmer will close the 2021/22 Bundesliga campaign against Leipzig.

George Bello - Own goal in loss Bello scored an own goal during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Bello came on the pitch with the match tied and 13 minutes to played looking to be the difference maker. He certainly was a difference maker, just not for the right team. Bello put past his own keeper and secured yet another loss for Bielefeld. Relegation is already a near certainty for Bielefeld, who would need a huge upset win over Leipzig next time out to even have a mathematical chance at a relegation play-off.

Gonzalo Castro - First assist of campaign Castro provided one assist on two chances created during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Castro finally found his first assist of the season during Friday's loss. The midfielder has been good at filling the stat sheet, but for the most part is well past his best. While he may have been a world-beater with Dortmund, with Bielefeld Castro has only made four starts (12 appearances), and has four chances created across the campaign. He will hop to start the final match of the season, against Leipzig on Saturday.

Joakim Nilsson - Scores again Nilsson scored once on two shots on goal during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Nilsson has now scored twice in a row his first, and second, goals of the season. This offensive explosion from the central defender is truly out of nowhere, before Saturday's one-all draw with Hertha he had take two shots all season and scored no goals. In his three shots during the last two matches he has scored twice. This offensive outbreak is unlikely to continue against RB Leipzig in the final match of the season.

Amos Pieper - On bench Friday Pieper (undisclosed) will be an option off the bench against VfL Bochum on Friday, per Bundesliga.com.

Impact Pieper was an unused substitute versus Hertha Berlin on Saturday and could find himself watching from the sidelines for the full 90 again Friday. In his stead, Guilherme Ramos and Joakim Nilsson will fill central defensive roles for the time being.

Bryan Lasme - Remains unavailable Lasme continues to be sidelined due to a knee injury against Bochum on Friday.

Impact Lasme will miss his fourth straight match due to his lingering knee issue. At this point, it's hard to imagine the forward will return in time for the season finale versus RB Leipzig on May 14. As such, Lasme figures to end the year having started just seven of 23 appearances and generating two goals on 13 shots (eight on target), 16 crosses (eight accurate) and seven chances created.

Stefan Ortega - Four saves in draw Ortega allowed a goal while making four saves during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Hertha Berlin.

Cedric Brunner - Remains out Brunner (head) is out for Saturday's clash with Hertha, Bielefeld announced.

Impact Brunner is out for Saturday's clash with Hertha as he continues to make his way back from a relatively serious head injury. The defender isn't a major fantasy option, but he will hope to make his return to the first team before the end of the season. Brunner's next chance for fitness will be Friday, away against Bochum, where he will likely return after already making a return to training.

APRIL 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Cedric Brunner - Training individually Brunner (head) was training individually Tuesday, Bielefeld announced.

Impact Brunner is back in training after coming off the pitch with a head injury against Wolfsburg. The hope is still that Brunner will be back in the 2021/22 season, though he needs to pass all concussion protocols before he can even make a return to full training.
