Bayer Leverkusen - Heidenheim predictions

Best bookmaker online do not see past Bayer Leverkusen in this game and we wholeheartedly agree. The betting odds work largely in their favour and there is a good reason for it. Heidenheim will have extremely difficult time running away with anything from this match.

From the current standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Leverkusen and the 7.29 odds given to Heidenheim to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a stunning surprise.

Leverkusen’s previous Bundesliga match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as Bayern München . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 11.82. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 3:0 result before the end.

Heidenheim are here on the back of a tie with Eintracht Frankfurt in the last round. Despite the 1:1 score in a home game, they performed above expectations by ending the first half ahead in a game which was heavily skewed against them.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, Heidenheim's backline has much to be wished for

With most bookmakers pricing an away win at 7.29, Heidenheim will have a very hard time earning some points in BayArena. However, they’ll have to try their best while they still have time. They’re currently number 18th in the standings, which would eventually get them relegated.

In terms of head-to-head stats, the closest point of reference right now is from last season when Bayer Leverkusen walked away with a decisive victory. This is an entirely new campaign but most top online bookies are still expecting the match to end in their favour.

Saturday's matchup will feature both teams at full strength, allowing for a fair and competitive game.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.49 at Pncl.
