Heidenheim vs Elversberg Prediction & Tips
Heidenheim fans certainly weren’t expecting such a season. Having made it all the way to the play-offs in the Europa Conference League, the German outfit had a far more complicated time on the domestic scene. The team coached by Frank Schmidt has had to fight to stay in the top flight of German football. And they’re not out of the woods yet! Quite the contrary, in fact. With just 8 wins from 34 Bundesliga games, they have had to settle for 16th place in the table. As a result, they will have to play off to stay up. The first leg will take place this Thursday at 8.30pm against Elversberg. The match will take place at the Voith Arena.
Elversberg have high hopes ahead of this double-header. They finished their 2.Bundesliga season in fine form. They managed to remain unbeaten in the last 8 rounds of the German second division. To cap it all, Horst Steffen’s men won their last 3 matches. A fine run that has seen them finish 3rd in the 2 Bundesliga. Ahead of the return leg, which they will be lucky enough to play at home, they will be doing everything they can to put themselves in an excellent frame of mind after the first leg.
