Heidenheim form and stats

Heidenheim have played three 2. Bundesliga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Three draws in a row here at Voith-Arena for Heidenheim, who might be willing to risk more at some point in hope of a win.

T. Kleindienst was the last player to score a league goal for Heidenheim and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Heidenheim haven't scored in 202 minutes.

The spoils were shared in Heidenheim's previous game, also at home. Visiting Hamburger SV (placed 10th) travelled back with a draw after a 0-0 scoreline. Goalkeeper Kevin Müller got the top rating on the team in that game; 7.81 out of ten. Müller stopped the opponent with four saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Hannover 96.

This is expected to be a close game, with Heidenheim perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Heidenheim as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Heidenheim has won eight of these, drawn two and lost two.

The lack of attacking qualities in Heidenheim means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Heidenheim have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 1 goal.

Dynamo Dresden form and stats

Dynamo Dresden are still undefeated on their travels in the 2. Bundesliga. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 2. Bundesliga home defeat versus Paderborn with 0-3 on the scoreboard. Defender Chris Löwe was the best team player with a rating of 7.3. Löwe hit one key pass and won 10 of 12 duels. Dresden lost heavily in their last match (against Paderborn as mentioned above) and the damage happened in the first half. Something did not go right in the pre-game preparations.

Prior to that result Dresden won their away game at Hansa Rostock. The scoreline was 3-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Dresden playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were two Dynamo Dresden wins, two draws and six defeats.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Dynamo Dresden has managed 4 goals and let in 2 from 2 matches.
