THE PREDICTION

Heidenheim still have hopes of promotion and if they keep going the way they are, they will be right in the mix. Frank Schmidt’s side have taken 13 points from the last 15 available, and another win on Friday would take them to within four points of second-placed Holstein Kiel. The visitors are a tough side to beat, though, with only three teams managing to do so all season. Away from home they have only lost once and they have also scored in each of their last 11 league games on the road. Similarly, Heidenheim have failed to find the net in just one of their last 10 on home soil, scoring 13 in the last five. Therefore, since the result is a close one to call, Both Teams To Score may well be the best option here.
