Augsburg comes into this fixture with their confidence bolstered after back-to-back wins on the road, showcasing improved defensive organization and clinical finishing. Yet, inconsistency has plagued their season, as seen in their 5-1 hammering at the hands of Holstein Kiel last month. At the WWK Arena, they’ve been a tricky team to face, securing two home wins in their last three Bundesliga matches.
Their attack, led by Ermedin Demirović and Dion Beljo, thrives on quick transitions, while their midfield focuses on pressing high to force errors. Defensive lapses remain a concern, as seen in their recent loss to Stuttgart. Augsburg’s ability to control this match will hinge on breaking Heidenheim’s attacking rhythm early and staying disciplined at the back.
1. FC Heidenheim
Heidenheim, in their maiden Bundesliga campaign, has shown flashes of promise mixed with growing pains. Their 3-3 draw against Werder Bremen highlighted their ability to fight back, but also exposed their inability to close out games. Frank Schmidt’s men rely heavily on Tim Kleindienst, whose knack for finding the net makes him their most reliable goal-scoring threat.
On the road, Heidenheim has struggled for consistency, as seen in their heavy 2-0 defeats to Bochum and St. Pauli. Defensive frailties have been their Achilles’ heel, with lapses in concentration often costing them dearly. To secure a result at Augsburg, Heidenheim must tighten up defensively while maintaining their attacking edge, particularly through set pieces and quick counterattacks.
