Dortmund
Dortmund will be motivated after their midweek 3-1 victory over Shakhtar in the Champions League, a confidence boost as they look to turn things around in the Bundesliga, where they are on a four-game winless streak.
Today, they face a struggling Heidenheim side that has had a tough season. Balancing both Bundesliga and Conference League commitments has stretched their small squad, leading to a significant dip in form and results.
Heidenheim has been the worst home team in the Bundesliga, managing just seven points from nine matches while conceding 16 goals.
While Dortmund hasn’t been the strongest side on the road, their important Champions League win and the momentum from a recent managerial change could give them an edge in this match.
What we say
Dortmund to Win
The most recent head-to-head encounter saw Dortmund secure a comfortable 4-2 victory at home. Given the current form of both teams and Dortmund’s urgent need for points, we expect a rare away win for them. A victory here would earn them three valuable points and bring them closer to sixth place in the standings.
