Head-to-head statistics Frankfurt - Heidenheim

Eintracht Frankfurt Team Overview
🔴 Frankfurt, currently sitting seventh in the league standings, failed to defeat St. Pauli (0-0), a team facing relegation from the Bundesliga, extending their winless streak on the road to seven matches. The xG metrics were almost even: 0.5 for the "Pirates" and 0.65 for the "Eagles." However, Frankfurt have secured victories in their last two home games.
⚪ Under the guidance of Albert Riera, the team has conceded only four goals in five matches - fewer than any other Bundesliga side during this period. A win on Saturday would allow Eintracht to maintain at least a one-point gap from Freiburg. Yet, breaking into the European competition spots remains a tough challenge with nine rounds left, as they trail sixth-placed Bayer Leverkusen by nine points.
Match Results: Eintracht Frankfurt

Heidenheim Team Overview
🔴 Following a home defeat to Hoffenheim (2-4), Heidenheim trail the safety zone by ten points. Luca Kerber scored twice, although Frank Schmidt's side were trailing on both occasions. The team, languishing at the bottom of the Bundesliga, have failed to secure a win in 12 consecutive matches, with their last victory coming against Freiburg (2-1) on December 6.
🔵 Heidenheim are the only club in the Bundesliga without a victory in 2026. The team continues to concede regularly, with their defense remaining the weakest in the league (57 goals conceded). In such circumstances, each upcoming fixture increasingly becomes a battle for Frank Schmidt's squad to keep even a theoretical chance of survival alive.

Latest news
Eintracht Frankfurt
🎙️ Albert Riera after the match against St. Pauli: "Defensively, we played well overall - we're making progress in that area, and this is our second consecutive clean sheet. First and foremost, to win games, we must not concede. However, we need to improve our play with the ball: we had too many touches and weren't quick enough. I'm confident we'll achieve greater success in our next match. I told my players that in attack, we were far from the level we're capable of when in possession. I'm pleased with my players' attitude."
❌ Kauan Santos, Ansgar Knauff, Rasmus Kristensen, Arthur Theate, and Can Uzun remain sidelined. Michy Batshuayi and Younes Ebnoutalib are doubtful for the upcoming match.
Heidenheim
🎙️ Frank Schmidt after the defeat against Hoffenheim: "The game started off quite controlled by both teams. In the first two instances, we weren't consistent enough defensively and gave Hoffenheim too much space. They capitalized on that with their quality and confidence. It's really tough for us to go into halftime without conceding. However, there are two positives I'd like to highlight today. Firstly, the team's reaction after conceding goals - we didn't give up and kept playing. Secondly, our fans' response. We're at the bottom with 14 points, but despite a tough game in Bremen, our fans applauded us off. It's incredible and something you don't see elsewhere in such situations. This is a message for us - to keep moving forward and strive for more. We take this message and need to act even more decisively in every situation to get closer to positive results."
❌ Leart Paqarada and Leonidas Stergiou are injured. Tim Siersleben might miss the match due to illness.
🟨 Yellow Card Prediction
Harm Osmers has been appointed as the referee for the match. Over his last ten games, he averages 4.8 yellow cards per game. Eintracht Frankfurt players receive an average of 1.8 yellow cards per match, while Heidenheim players average 1.5. We are opting for under 3.5 total yellow cards - a scenario that has occurred in the last three consecutive head-to-head encounters.
⚽ Goal Prediction
This season, Eintracht have scored twice as many goals as Heidenheim - 48 compared to 24. The Eagles find the net on average every sixth shot, a rate matched only by Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. Heidenheim require around 12 shots to score a single goal. Our editorial team is backing Eintracht's individual total under 2.5 goals - a bet that has come through in eight of Frankfurt's last nine matches.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Despite their league position, Heidenheim average more corners than Eintracht: 4.7 to 4.3. We anticipate that Frankfurt will have the edge in set pieces in the upcoming match, but we are choosing Eintracht's individual total under 6.5 corners - a stat recorded in 12 of their last 13 Bundesliga games.
Editor's Prediction
Eintracht enter the match as favorites, especially given their home advantage and Heidenheim's significant struggles with form. Frank Schmidt's side are enduring a prolonged slump and haven't tasted victory for quite some time, whereas under Albert Riera, the Frankfurt team have notably tightened up their defense. Therefore, a win for Eintracht seems the most likely outcome, as they should capitalize on their opponent's issues to secure an important three points. The predicted scoreline is 2-0.
