Dortmund vs Heidenheim Prediction & Betting Tips (13 September)

Willkommen bei Borussen! Welcome to the Borussens in other words. Bayern Munich's only real competitor for many years, now there are 4 of them claiming the Bundesliga title. Bayern, Borussia, Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig. Fortunately, the Germans have the chance to scratch a 5th ticket directly qualifying for the Champions League otherwise the BVB would not have played it this year. During the first day against Eintracht Frankfurt in Signal Iduna Park, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens pulled out all the stops 2-0, 72', 90', before seeing his team a few days later share the points against Werder Bremen 0-0. Borussia is 4th 4 points. Opposite, 1.

FC Heidenheim has changed dimension in the space of a few months. Promoted during the 2023-24 season to the elite of German football, the Bundesliga, Heidenheim obtained their ticket for the Europa Conference League via 8th place and a success over the Swedish team of Haecken in the play-off 3-2/1- 2. Although it lost many offensive leaders see below, Heidenheim won its first 2 matches by a large margin. The 1st day ahead of S.Pauli 0-2 and Augsburg in the 2nd 4-0. The residents of the Voith-Arena occupy 1st place in the championship with 6 points +6 difference. 

As a whole, Borussia Dortmund has lost its strength in recent years. It is logical to continue the previous paragraph to see the RBL and Bayer slightly ahead of the BVB for 2 years. The loss of Bellingham hurt 2 years ago, the fact that Sancho returned to his best last year by leading this team to the Champions League final and forced to return to Man United (loan, then transfer to Chelsea ). For the rest Dortmund lost their historic defender Hummels (free), the legend Marco Reus (LA Galaxy) and the right back Wolf (Augsburg) but also their striker Fülkrug (12 goals, 8 assists West Ham). The BVB recruited local on the contrary, defender Anton (Stuttgart), Guirassy (28 goals, Stuttgart), and attackers Beier (Hoffenheim, 16 goals in the Bundesliga last season) joined the Yellow Wall. Young Wajten and summer recruit Guirassy may not be fit to play. The baton blow hurts the locals' heads after so many departures.

FC Heidenheim lost Beste (Benfica Lisbon, 8 goals - 11 assists), its center forward Kleindienst (12 goals, 3 assists) joined Borussia Mönchengladbach, the very good Dinkçi (10 goals, 4 assists) took him the management of Fribourg. In the urgency of rebuilding a competitive group, the leaders of Heidenheim were left empty-handed. Let's first talk about Paul Wanner. Young nugget from Bayern (loan) the young 18-year-old player scored 2 goals for 1 assist in 2 championship matches, also scoring in the return against Hacken in C4. Kaufmann (Union Berlin), Conteh (Paderborn), Scienza (Ulm, 1 goal in the league) and Honsak (Darsmtadt) strengthened the group. In theory, the little used Keller and the rookie Niehues are the only elements to have to withdraw from this poster.
