Here we go. Steffen and Christian Arbeit come in out of the rain, to start with the good news that tomorrow is sold out, but the bad news that Andrik Markgraf and Robert Skov will be missing.

First up, Andrej Ilic has trained, he looks good and is available tomorrow.
4
Steffen talks of taking chances, and making the most of them when they come. If that happens, he points out, then the chances of winning are better.
5
He talks of Bielefeld's game against Elversberg, as of their willingness to play with the ball. There's not a lot I don't know about them, he says, but I won't underestimate them. He points out though that at hme, in front of a full house under the lights, his side will give their all.

In knock out football - in the cup - the small moments can make the biggest differences, and the round doesn't really matter. He talks of the loss last season, how that game could have gone differently, before saying that he is not taking anything to chance tomorrow. He'll send his best team out.
7
He talks of Michel Kniat, particularly his loyalty. They were together at Paderborn, and his fondness for the Bielefeld boss shines through. Still, it won't stop him looking for the win tomorrow.
8
And that's that, a quick one today. Steffen and Christian are back off out into the rain, as will we be. See you tomorrow under the lights. It'll be beautiful. Eisern!
