Bayer Leverkusen: Form and Statistics

Bayer Leverkusen Bundesliga form: L-W-W-L-W

Last weekend, Bayer Leverkusen hit a bump in the road when they lost 3-0 to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. It was a tough reminder of how far ahead they are at the top, but it didn't stop them completely. The loss ended a strong run in the league, but this time they have a good chance to bounce back because they are playing at home. Kasper Hjulmand's team bounced back quickly in the middle of the week. They beat Benfica 1-0 away in the Champions League, showing strength and discipline after that big loss. The camp is slowly gaining confidence again after winning three of their last four matches in all competitions. Leverkusen has 17 points from nine games in the Bundesliga, with only two losses so far, one of which was to Bayern. They also have the third-best attack in the league, scoring a lot and punishing defenses that aren't very good. However, their recent form has been all over the place. After a 1-1 tie with Paderborn and a loss to Bayern, they won by a narrow margin in Europe. They've been good at home, winning three of their last six games, tying one, and scoring 11 goals in that time. Expectations are still high at Leverkusen, and so far, the season is mostly going as planned. Die Werkself will try to show everyone why they are still one of Germany's best teams, with support from Europe and a home crowd.

Heidenheim: Form and Statistics

Heidenheim Bundesliga form: L-D-L-L-D

FC Heidenheim is at the bottom of the Bundesliga table after a rough start to the season. They have only won one of their first nine games and have only gotten five points so far. With that kind of play, it looks like another fight to avoid relegation is coming. Playing away from home won't help, especially against Bayer Leverkusen, who have won most of their recent games against them. Still, Heidenheim showed some fight last weekend by drawing 1-1 with Eintracht Frankfurt, a team that is in the top four. Frank Schmidt, the coach with the longest tenure in German football, stays calm under pressure. He has led Heidenheim from the fifth division to the Bundesliga at the age of 51, and his steady hand keeps their faith alive even though they are having a hard time. Their last few games have been close. They lost to Hoffenheim 3-1 and Hamburger SV 1-0 before getting a hard-fought draw with Frankfurt. Heidenheim has won two and lost four of their last six away games. They scored six goals and gave up eight. Heidenheim has played well in a few matches, even though their form has been inconsistent. They have shown signs of being tough. Both teams in this match like to play attacking football, so it should be a fun and open game where defense might not be as important.
