📏 Form Guide
Heidenheim WWLLLL 📉
Heidenheim won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 2-1 Bundesliga loss in their previous game against Hamburg.
In that game, Heidenheim managed 51% possession and 21 shots at goal with 8 on target. The only player to score for Heidenheim was Adam Kölle (93'). Hamburg got 22 attempts on goal with 9 on target. Luka Vušković (42') and Rayan Philippe (59') scored for Hamburg.
It has been a rare occasion in recent times where Heidenheim have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The reality is that Heidenheim have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 10 goals during that time. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be sustained here, though.
Going into this encounter, Heidenheim are without a home win in the past 6 league matches. Their fans aren't happy.
Augsburg LWWLLL 📉

At the other end, Mainz 05 had 12 shots on goal with 4 on target. Kaishu Sano (14'), Dominik Kohr (26'), Paul Nebel (60') and Armindo Sieb (69') scored for Mainz.
Proving their fondness for eventful encounters, we’ve seen goals 22 times in the previous six matches in which Augsburg have sent out their troops, making it a mean average of 3.67 goals per fixture. Opposition teams have managed 12 of those goals.

📰 Team News: Heidenheim
Thomas Keller (Knee injury), Frank Feller (Torn lateral knee ligament), Marvin Pieringer (Ankle injury), Mathias Honsak (muscular problems) and Leart Paçarada (Cruciate ligament tear) aren’t available for Heidenheim boss Frank Schmidt.
It’s our opinion that Heidenheim may well use the 4-2-3-1 system in the match with Diant Ramaj, Omar Traore, Patrick Mainka, Benedikt Gimber, Jonas Foehrenbach, Luca Kerber, Niklas Dorsch, Sirlord Conteh, Jan Schoeppner, Arijon Ibrahimovic and Mikkel Kaufmann.
ℹ️ Team News: Augsburg
Augsburg manager Sandro Wagner has multiple availability issues to deal with. Jeffrey Gouweleeuw (Inner knee ligament tear), Anton Kade (Ankle problems) and Dimitrios Giannoulis (Hamstring injury) won’t be making appearances.
We believe Augsburg could decide to make use of a 3-4-2-1 system with a starting lineup of Finn Dahmen, Chrislain Matsima, Keven Schlotterbeck, Cedric Zesiger, Marius Wolf, Han-Noah Massengo, Kristijan Jakic, Robin Fellhauer, Fabian Rieder, Alexis Claude and Mert Komur.
🧠 Prediction
Our feeling is that Augsburg and Heidenheim could well cancel each other out, with goals at a real premium.
It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. We’re therefore expecting a very even match with a 0-0 scoreline at full-time.
