Heidenheim preview: Showing fight
Having avoided relegation in the end of season playoff last year, Heidenheim now head into the final six games of this season sitting nine points adrift of St Pauli in the relegation playoff place and 11 behind Cologne and outright safety.
The home team do head into this one on the back of entertaining and high-scoring draws against Bayer Leverkusen and then Borussia Monchengladbach either side of the March international break.
Union Berlin preview: Frustrated Union
Union Berlin head into the Bundesliga run in sitting firmly in the middle-of-the-table but with a seven-point gap between themselves and the top seven and the European spots, with time running out.
Their frustrating form of late, including a 1-1 draw with struggling St Pauli at the weekend, has pegged them back in their pursuit of European football and perhaps condemned them towards being 'on the beach' in these final few games.

Heidenheim vs Union Berlin prediction
That draw with the struggling St Pauli means that Union have now managed just three victories in their last 14 matches - all three of which have come by a 1-0 scoreline. Heidenheim are going down but they aren't going down without showing some fight and resolve, as well as trying to restore some pride with some fun, attacking displays. Given the inertia that may well now be hitting Union for the remainder of this campaign, siding with Heidenheim, especially with their home advantage, may well be a good way to go on Saturday afternoon.
Heidenheim vs Union Berlin tip: Double chance - Heidenheim to win or draw
