Köln - Heidenheim predictions

Köln should not have bigger problems running away with three points in this match if they stick to their game plan. However, Heidenheim can be a tough nut to crack and the home side need to be on top of their game.

The away team’s chances of winning this Saturday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Köln, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Köln lost an away game at Union Berlin in the previous round. The entire match was an uphill battle for them, and top online bookmakers priced an away win at odds of 4.50. As such, the 2:0 was somewhat predictable, even though Koln managed to maintain a stalemate in the first half.

Heidenheim’s spirits should be high after their latest Bundesliga performance. Most bookmakers online favoured the away team, Freiburg. After a poor first half, Heidenheim managed to snag a surprising 3:2 win.

Considering Koln’s last two home games, this match might be a good chance to go for an Under 2.5 or even Under 1.5 Goals bet. Both of those matches ended with either one goal or none.

The away team’s previous three away games left a lot to be desired when it comes to how they perform defensively. Over 5 conceded goals in just 3 matches is never a good look, even if you’re playing as visitors.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Saturday. Sargis Adamyan, Mark Uth, Leart Paqarda will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.18. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
