Friday night’s Bundesliga game sees two hard-to-beat teams, Heidenheim and Dortmund, go head-to-head at the Voith Arena.
Heidenheim have been difficult to beatThe home team are unbeaten in their last six games in the German top-flight. A 1-1 draw at Hoffenheim in their last league game means they have drawn their previous three matches in the Bundesliga, having all produced the same scoreline.
Their recent outings in the German top flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings.
Heidenheim’s recent unbeaten run in the Bundesliga has the home team eight points adrift of the European spots.
Franck Schmidt’s team has won five of their last eight home games in the Bundesliga, having also mounted a five-game unbeaten run.
Heidenheim has been prolific on home soil in the German top flight, scoring at least two goals in six of their previous nine home games.
Dortmund are on a hot streakBVB have found form in recent weeks, as a 3-1 home win over Bochum last time out means that Edin Terzic’s team has recorded three straight league wins, having also gone five league games without a defeat.
Dortmund have been highly prolific in front of goal of late, scoring at least three goals in all three of those recent victories. Striker Nicklas Fullkrug seems to have found his shooting boots lately, scoring four goals in his last two league appearances.
The visitors have recently improved their away form, as BVB are unbeaten in four Bundesliga games on their travels, having recorded back-to-back away wins.
Dortmund’s recent league matches away from home have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in ten of their last 14 matches.
What am I backing?Both teams have been difficult to beat of late, and this could be a relatively even encounter. I expect this to be a high-scoring encounter, so the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals scored.
