Freiburg vs FC Heidenheim Prediction

Freiburg Form

Freiburg have been too mediocre in their last three matches, where a win has failed to come their way. Against Mainz 05, they gained a point in a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Wolfsburg, who ran out 1-2 winners. Lately, they managed to steal a point in a 0-0 draw with FC Koln. Freiburg didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six Bundesliga games at the Europa-Park Stadion. They have a record of three draws and three defeats, in which they conceded 15 and scored ten goals.

FC Heidenheim Form

In their last three matches, FC Heidenheim lost 1-2 against RB Leipzig, won 0-1 against Darmstadt, and drew 1-1 with Mainz 05. FC Heidenheim won twice, while also recording three draws, and one defeat in their last six away matches in the Bundesliga. The scoreline from these matches says eight goals conceded and nine scored.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Freiburg welcome FC Heidenheim this coming Saturday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.

Freiburg claimed 11 wins, eight draws as well as 13 defeats in the Bundesliga this season. FC Heidenheim enjoy a record of nine wins, 11 draws and 12 defeats in the Bundesliga.
