Heidenheim vs Dortmund Prediction & Tips
Heidenheim managed to stay in the Bundesliga last season, finishing in sixteenth place and beating Elversberg in the promotion play-offs. The new season began with a convincing 5-0 victory in the German Cup against a Regionalliga representative, but the start to the league campaign has been extremely difficult. On the first matchday, Heidenheim lost 3-1 at home to Wolfsburg, and then lost 2-0 away to RB Leipzig. Thus, after two matchdays, the team is in seventeenth place without any points.
Borussia Dortmund, after finishing last season, had the opportunity to shine in the Club World Cup, reaching the quarter-finals, where they were eliminated by Real Madrid after losing 2-3. The new season began with a victory in the German Cup, albeit by the narrowest of margins — 1-0 against Essen, a third-division team. The start to the Bundesliga season was also uneven: on the first matchday, Dortmund drew 3-3 away to St. Pauli, letting victory slip away after leading 3-1.
