Augsburg vs Heidenheim Predictions

Backing against Heidenheim is the value play

Augsburg can be backed to win at home to Heidenheim on Sunday, with the visitors having lost eight times in their last ten away games in the Bundesliga.

Augsburg are five places above Heidenheim in the table, with nine points separating the two sides. Augsburg are 13th having won six of their 21 games this season, while Heidenheim have just three wins.

Heidenheim could not break their losing habit last weekend, going down 2-0 to Hamburg in their last Bundesliga outing. This was a disappointing result for Heidenheim, who had been priced at 7/4 to win. They have now lost 12 of the 14 games this season in which they’ve shipped the first goal (86%), and Hamburg had the chances to win by more.

Augsburg are unbeaten in their last six home games in the Bundesliga.

It would be no surprise to see Augsburg score, having found the net at least twice in three of their last four Bundesliga games.

Heidenheim are out of form, and backing their opponents during their current run of six defeats in eight Bundesliga games would have resulted in a profit of 1.95 units.

Heidenheim’s struggles on the road continue, with just one win in their last ten away games. They have lost six of their last eight Bundesliga matches and are currently on a three-game losing streak.

Heidenheim have been disappointing in front of goal away from home this season, scoring just nine goals in ten games – an average of 0.90 goals a game on the road.

Their defence has been unconvincing of late. It is 22 games since they last recorded a shutout, and no team has shipped more goals in the Bundesliga this season than the 47 goals Heidenheim have conceded.

Augsburg to get the 2-0 home win looks a decent correct-score option. Three of Augsburg’s six wins in the Bundesliga this season have been by a two-goal margin and Heidenheim have lost two of their last three league games by at least two goals.
