No other match in the 3. Liga had such a high attendance. One year later the stadium was nearly sold out in that derby. An earlier rival was VfB 03 Bielefeld from the east of Bielefeld, but the rivalry lessened and nowadays friendly matches between Arminia and VfB Fichte Bielefeld , as the club nowadays is called, take place every year.

Another rival is VfL Bochum , especially since the late 90s, and there were "fashion rivalries" with other clubs from the Ruhr , because that area also belongs to Westphalia.

Some SC Paderborn 07 supporters seem to consider Arminia as their main rival, but Arminia fans are unlikely to feel the same about them.

For many fans this friendship also involves friendly ties to Hannover 96 , whose fans share a friendship with Hamburg as well.
