Augsburg vs Heidenheim Prediction & Betting Tips (25 January)

As is often the case, Augsburg is sailing by sight in this Bundesliga. This team is in fact always forced to have to battle in the second half of the table and it is often affected by series of negative results interspersed with a few victories scored here and there to stay a good distance from the red zone. This trend has also been confirmed in recent weeks. Defeated 3 times by Bayer Leverkusen 0- 2, Holstein Kiel 5-1 and Stuttgart 0-1, the Bavarians bounced back well by dominating Union Berlin 0-2 then Werder Bremen 0-2 on both occasions. last days.

With 22 points on the clock, they are now in 12th place, 8 lengths ahead of the red zone. Opposite, Heidenheim is experiencing a very different season from that experienced last year for what was its baptism of fire in the Bundesliga. 8th in the previous year and qualified for the Conference League where it will compete in the play-offs next month, this team however encounters enormous difficulties in the championship where it finds itself in a play-off position, with 3 units behind the first non relegated. At the bottom of the hole since the end of September, the FCH had just been able to achieve its first success in 10 matches against Union Berlin 2-0 but this joy was short-lived since it was then held by Werder Bremen 3- 3 before diving back against Sankt Pauli 0-2 last Saturday.

Several players must still give up taking part in this meeting with Augsburg. Indeed, defender Schlotterbeck and attackers Kadabayi (1 goal in the Bundesliga this season) and Okugawa (0 goals) are still on the flank. Furthermore, defenders Gunmy, Pedersen (5 matches) and Bauer (11) are also stuck in the infirmary at the moment. The important Onyeka is back after being suspended last weekend but it will be the turn of defender Zesiger to be sanctioned for an accumulation of yellow cards. The Bavarians can still rely on some interesting attackers like Tietz (5 goals), the French Claude-Maurice (6 goals) and the former Pallois Essende who scored his 4th and 5th goals of the season last week.

Note that this winter, Swiss international winger Ruben Vargas joined Sevilla FC during the transfer window. FCH will approach this important meeting without replacement midfielder Niehues, the most important Honsak (2 goals), senior defender Föhrenbach and midfielder holder Dorsch who fill all the ranks of the local infirmary. The visitors lack serious offensive assets this year even if the young prospect Wanner (19 years old, 3 goals) and the winger Leo Scenzia (3 goals) try to do well in front of the interesting Beck (2 goals) and Breunig (2 goals). Offensive winter recruit Budu Zivzivadze (12 goals in 17 games with Karlsruhe during the first part of the season) is still looking for his first goal in his new colors.
