Heidenheim, Recent FormHeidenheim won't feel too deflated by the 4-2 away defeat to Bayern Munich, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. In that game they had 27% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Bayern Munich who had 19 attempts and 8 on target.
He will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 13 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 8 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 9 of their 11 games.
Losing 4 of their last 6 outings will not be looked on kindly by their manager; however, they did salvage some valuable points by winning the other 2 games.
On an individual basis, Jan-Niklas Beste will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at Voith-Arena having scored 5 goals in Heidenheim's last 6 home games in the league.
Bochum, Recent FormWith a 1-1 draw in their last match against Cologne, Bochum had to settle for a share of the points. They achieved 52% possession in that match and had 25 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Cologne's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 10 of their 11 games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games. The early part of the season has provided an unusually high number of draws for Die Unabsteigbaren, with 6 draws in 11 league games.
Away from home in the league, Takuma Asano has given the Bochum travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 4 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
It was not a positive ending for Heidenheim last time they met Bochum in the league, with the game ending in a 0-2 defeat.
Die Unabsteigbaren will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Heidenheim, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 6 meetings between the two. Heidenheim have failed score a goal in 4 of their last 5 league meetings with Bochum. When Bochum visit Heidenheim in the league, goals tend to happen, with 7 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2.33 goals per match. In their past 5 meetings, Bochum's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Heidenheim will have to take their chances when they come.
Bochum will be looking to continue their winning streak against Heidenheim, having won each of the last 5 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 5 meetings.
