Heidenheim

Heidenheim have shown signs of improvement despite their position in the relegation zone.

Frank Schmidt’s side collected back-to-back wins over Union Berlin and SC Freiburg late last year, and followed that up with draws against Koln and Wolfsburg this January, proving they can be competitive even against stronger teams.

Last week, they drew 1-1 away at Wolfsburg, extending their winless streak to five Bundesliga matches (three losses, two draws).

Heidenheim remains three points from safety, but their recent resilience provides hope, especially as they approach two tough fixtures against heavy favorites RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund.

RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig have struggled for consistency lately. Although they beat SC Freiburg 2-0 in mid-January, they have suffered three defeats in their last four games, showing they are very vulnerable.

On top of that, RB Leipzig conceded at least three goals in each of those defeats, including five against Bayern Munich in the 1-5 hammering last week.

RB Leipzig is now seven points behind the second Borussia Dortmund, although they have one game in hand to play. They are not giving up the fight for the second that easily. Their strength lies in attack, but recent defensive lapses remain a concern.

The Betting Verdict

RB Leipzig have a perfect record against Heidenheim at this level, with four wins and a draw in five Bundesliga meetings.

As favorites, RB Leipzig should take the points, but Heidenheim’s recent resilience and home support could see them scoring, making both teams to score an interesting secondary option.
