Hamburger SV vs Heidenheim Prediction & Tips
Hamburger finished second in last season’s 2. Bundesliga, accumulating 59 points in 34 matches. This allowed them to be promoted directly to the top German division. However, the start of the season has not been as expected for the club. On the first matchday, the team drew 0-0 with Borussia Mönchengladbach, and then began a losing streak. A 2-0 defeat to St. Pauli, a setback in a friendly against Hannover (3-1) and a heavy defeat to Bayern Munich (5-0) after the international break. Hamburg currently has only one point and is second from bottom.
Heidenheim also had a difficult start. In the 2023/24 season, the team qualified for European competitions and played in the UEFA Conference League, but competing on several fronts proved too much, and Heidenheim eventually finished in 16th place with 29 points. The club retained its place in the top flight thanks to a victory over Elversberg in the play-offs. In the new season, the situation has worsened: three defeats in three matches — against Wolfsburg (1-3), Leipzig (0-2) and Borussia Dortmund (0-2). The team is bottom of the table with a goal difference of 1:7.
