Freiburg - Heidenheim predictions

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.77, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

It’s highly unlikely that Heidenheim will manage to get some points this round. Freiburg are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

Freiburg held the line against Köln in the last round, though the end result was a 0:0 draw. Still, this can be considered a mild success given the difficult match-up and home-field disadvantage.

Heidenheim were off to a bad start in their previous Bundesliga outing. Although they were the home team, they were behind on half-time against a relatively stronger opponent - Mainz 05. Heidenheim managed to scrape together a 1:1 draw before the end, which isn’t bad all things considered.

Freiburg fans at Schwarzwald-Stadion have seen a lot of concessions lately – 7 in the previous three matches. Hopefully, we’ll see some better play from their defenders.

Based on Heidenheim’s recent performances, a null result is not very likely. They got on the scoreboard in all 7 of their previous Bundesliga outings and the trend is highly likely to continue.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this Bundesliga clash tells a different story. Freiburg lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

This match is notable for the number of injuries reported prior by both sides. On one hand, the hosts will have to make do without Tan Jerico Schmidt, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Merlin Röhl, Matthias Ginter, Philipp Lienhart, Max Rosenfelder. On the other, the visitors will not be able to count on Marnon Busch, Lennard Maloney, Thomas Keller, Elidon Qenaj. Both are in a precarious state, but you should take the importance of these players to the respective strategies before putting down a stake.

The risks involved in backing a BTTS bet for this match are minimal. Both Freiburg and Heidenheim have a history of confirming the market so the 1 odds offered at 1xbet is too good to pass up.
