THE PREDICTION

Bochum have won the last three encounters between these two sides and they have been pretty solid at home this season, winning three and losing just one of their six home league matches this season as well as registering four clean sheets. Heidenheim travel to the Ruhrstadion on a six-match unbeaten run, and they have also kept clean sheets in their last three outings, albeit scoring just twice themselves. Only leaders Holstein Kiel have a better defensive record than Frank Schmidt’s side, so with both backlines looking strong, this is likely to be a contest of few goals.
