Schalke 04 Heidenheim betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 7^th position of the league, with 42 points won, after 13 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against St. Pauli, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Nürnberg, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 14 points in away matches and 28 points at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 13 goals conceded at home, against 13 goals scored and 23 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Heidenheim has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (9 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 28 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 14 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Despite being a little behind the teams at the top of the table, Heidenheim still have a chance of moving up the division. To do so, they need to maintain their consistency in this final phase and that includes good results away from home. The match against Schalke 04 is likely to be very competitive and will require a lot of care throughout the ninety minutes. This is the kind of match where everything has to go right, because any slip-up could be fatal.

Confirmed Lineup: Kevin Müller, Marnon Busch, Patrick Mainka, Oliver Hüsing, Kevin Sessa, Andreas Geipl, Norman Theuerkauf, Jan Schöppner, Tobias Mohr, Maurice Malone, Tim Kleindienst.
