Head-to-head statistics Heidenheim - Augsburg
Heidenheim Team Overview
🔴 Heidenheim suffered their fourth consecutive defeat, falling 2-1 away to Bundesliga newcomers Hamburg. The "Red-Blue-Whites" maintained a high tempo and created opportunities, but their finishing let them down once again. The hosts capitalized on their chances, opening the scoring late in the first half and doubling their lead in the second half. Heidenheim were forced to take risks, leading to an end-to-end game where Hamburg could have scored several more times. The visitors did manage to get on the scoreboard in stoppage time, with Adam Kölle netting his debut goal for the club in the 93rd minute. This marks only the second goal for Heidenheim in the league during this four-game losing streak, leaving them as the only team in the league without a point.

Augsburg Team Overview
⚪ Augsburg suffered a heavy defeat in their last match against Mainz (1-4), despite having a numerical advantage for nearly the entire second half. Sandro Wagner's side once again displayed a lackluster attack and a vulnerable defense. After their loss to St. Pauli, Alexis Claude-Maurice returned to the lineup, and Keven Schlotterbeck was back from injury. However, Augsburg conceded as early as the 14th minute due to a mistake, and the score soon became 0-2. Even with an opponent's player sent off, which seemed to give the hosts a chance to turn the game around, it didn't happen. Instead, Mainz scored two more goals. Essende's goal in the 87th minute was only a minor consolation. As a result, the "Fuggers" have now lost three consecutive matches and sit in 16th place in the standings with just 3 points. The away game against Heidenheim is crucial both for the team and personally for Wagner. A fourth consecutive defeat could cast doubt on the trust in the young coach, who is leading a Bundesliga club for the first time.

Latest news
Heidenheim
🎙 Frank Schmidt's post-match thoughts: "It's tough for us to come to terms with the defeat. We had some great chances early on, but we didn't capitalize on them. The second goal we conceded is particularly frustrating; we lost every duel leading up to the strike. After going 2-0 down, the match lost its structure and turned into an open exchange of attacks, where Hamburg had excellent opportunities. Otherwise, we looked better and had more chances, which makes it hard to accept the loss."
❌ Budu Zivzivadze continues to serve a three-match suspension following his red card against Borussia. Leart Paqarada is out for an extended period due to a cruciate ligament tear. Matthias Honsak, Marvin Pieringer, Frank Feller, and Thomas Keller will also miss out due to injuries.
Augsburg
🎙 Wagner's post-match comments: "We were eager to secure our first home win and were highly motivated. However, we made mistakes that cost us goals. We needed to be more vigilant in defense against counterattacks and act more cohesively. We're very disappointed."
❌ Captain Jeffrey Gouweleeuw is sidelined for several weeks with a knee injury. Dimitris Giannoulis and Anton Kade remain in recovery.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The match will be officiated by Tobias Welz. In his last 10 matches, he has averaged 4.6 yellow cards. This season, Heidenheim have been receiving an average of 2.5 yellow cards per match (10 in total), while Augsburg average 2.75 (11 in total). We are opting for a bet on over 3.5 yellow cards, as this outcome has occurred in all of Heidenheim's matches and in 3 out of 4 games for Augsburg.
⚽ Goal Prediction
Despite last year's 4-0 thrashing of Augsburg, we don't expect fireworks from Heidenheim in the upcoming match. Over four rounds, they have only scored twice, which is the second-worst in the league. Additionally, the departure of Leo Scienza (who moved to Southampton) has significantly impacted their attack. Our bet: Heidenheim's individual total under 1.5 goals.
🚩 Corner Prediction
On average, Heidenheim take 5.5 corners per match, while Augsburg average 4.75. However, Augsburg lead in head-to-head corner stats (5.5 to 4.25). Nevertheless, we are choosing a bet on under 9.5 total corners, as this has been the outcome in 6 of Heidenheim's last 7 matches.
Editorial Prediction
Both clubs are facing a crisis, even though the season has just begun. Heidenheim struggle with converting their chances and maintaining defensive solidity, while Augsburg are inconsistent but have at least tasted victory and scored seven goals-significantly more than their opponents. They've conceded even more, but the hosts have more serious issues to contend with. Our prediction: Augsburg will not lose. Heidenheim might earn their first point, so a 1-1 draw is possible.
