Heidenheim vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction & Betting Tips (1 November)

Observers probably don't think very highly of FC Heidenheim in this Bundesliga. It must be said that this team shows practically no progress compared to what it had already offered last year, when it had to go through the play-offs to maintain its place in the elite. Worse still, the locals have only pocketed 4 points during the first 8 days and they have already been beaten 6 times since the start of the season. Defeated by Stuttgart 0-1, FCH was then able to hold Werder Bremen to a draw 2-2 before losing once again last weekend at TSG Hoffenheim 3-1. This week, Heidenheim will try to give itself a little breath of fresh air by hosting Hamburg in the Cup. For its part, Eintracht Frankfurt is logically moving forward as a favorite for this meeting even if everything is not perfect for this team at the start of the season.

The Capricious Diva is indeed faced with numerous defensive problems, particularly highlighted in recent weeks, such as against Atlético Madrid 5-1 and Liverpool 1-5 in the Champions League, or against Bayern 0-3 and Friborg in the Bundesliga 2-2. However, the Eagles were able to tighten the screw last weekend by winning at home against Sankt Pauli 2-0. A success which allows them to be in 6th position in the ranking. On Tuesday, Frankfurt will also be competing in the German Cup, against Borussia Dortmund. 

FC Heidenheim is still orphaned by its goalkeeper Feller, defender Pacarada and striker Conteh who are still forced to stay in the stands at the moment. Striker Sorensen and important striker Kaufmann (1 goal, 1 assist) should also turn on the flasher this weekend. Against Hoffenheim, it was replacement striker Schimmer who was able to save the honor, thus unlocking his tally this season. As for the visitors, the long-term absentee Ngankam should be able to put on his crampons again today after having been absent during the first few days. Young Baum and the environment important Höjlund are still not operational.

If the defense is not always free from reproach, Frankfurt's offensive sector is doing well for the moment. Are regularly acclaimed in the middle Turkish international Can Yilmaz Uzun (5 goals, 3 assists in the Bundesliga), Japanese rookie Doan (2 goals, 3 assists), midfielder Chaïbi (1 goal, 5 assists), the interesting Knauff (2 goals) and the tricolor Bahoya (2 goals, 1 assist decisive) in particular. Summer recruit Burkardt (5 goals in the Bundesliga, 2 in C1) is in full swing with 4 goals scored in the last 2 days. The probable line-ups for Heidenheim – Eintracht Frankfurt:
