Match Prediction: Heidenheim 1-2 FC Augsburg

Heidenheim's recent form suggests a struggle to find the net, having lost their last four league matches without scoring more than once in any game. Their defensive frailties could be exploited by Augsburg, who, despite a mixed run, showed offensive prowess in their victory against SC Freiburg.

Augsburg might capitalise on Heidenheim's vulnerability at the back, using their attacking flair to create scoring opportunities.

However, Augsburg's inconsistency could play into Heidenheim's hands if they manage to tighten their defence. Heidenheim's home advantage might help them to frustrate Augsburg's attack, potentially leading to a closely contested match. The key for Heidenheim will be to capitalise on any defensive lapses from Augsburg.

Heidenheim's recent form has been poor, with four consecutive Bundesliga losses and a lack of goals scored. This trend indicates a team struggling to find their rhythm, particularly in attack.

Their inability to score more than once in any of these games could impact their confidence going into this match, making it crucial for them to find a way to increase their goal output.

Defensively, Heidenheim has been porous, conceding multiple goals in each of their last four matches. This vulnerability at the back could be a significant concern against an Augsburg side that has shown they can score when in form. Heidenheim will need to shore up their defence to have any chance of a positive result.

Recent Bundesliga Results:

• Loss: 1-2 vs Hamburger SV (A)

• Loss: 0-2 vs Borussia Dortmund (H)

• Loss: 0-2 vs RB Leipzig (A)

• Loss: 1-3 vs VfL Wolfsburg (H)

Augsburg's recent results show a team capable of both highs and lows, with a convincing win against SC Freiburg but also three losses. Their ability to score three goals away from home against Freiburg suggests they have the firepower to challenge Heidenheim's defence. This offensive potential could be key in this match.

However, Augsburg's inconsistency, particularly in defence, could be their Achilles' heel. Conceding multiple goals in three of their last four league games indicates a need for defensive improvement. If Augsburg can tighten up at the back while maintaining their attacking threat, they could secure a vital win.

Recent Bundesliga Results:

• Loss: 1-4 vs FSV Mainz 05 (H)

• Loss: 1-2 vs St. Pauli (A)

• Loss: 2-3 vs FC Bayern München (H)

• Win: 3-1 vs SC Freiburg (A)

The head-to-head record between Heidenheim and FC Augsburg shows a competitive rivalry, with each team securing significant victories. Augsburg has won three out of the last four encounters, including a convincing 5-2 away win.

However, Heidenheim's 4-0 home victory last season suggests they are capable of causing an upset. This history indicates a closely fought contest is likely.

• Predicted lineup: Dahmen, Matsima, Gouweleeuw,  Zesiger, Wolf, Kömür, Massengo, Rexhbecaj, Rieder, Saad, Claude-Maurice
