Will Heidenheim also take points in Freiburg?

The top five places in the German Bundesliga have already been decided. Behind them, a real snail’s race is developing for the remaining free European starting places. Despite a very mixed second half of the season, SC Freiburg still have a good chance of snatching one of the free tickets to Europe. However, a home win against newly promoted Heidenheim should be enough for that

The odds of the bookies for a Freiburg vs Heidenheim betting tip show that the bookmakers are relatively certain that the Breisgau team will win against the cheeky newcomers. However, this euphoria is not entirely shared when you consider that SC Freiburg have not won a home game in the Bundesliga for almost four months and their upcoming opponents have only lost one away game in the second half of the season

Therefore, a prediction of at least a point for Freiburg against Heidenheim does not seem far-fetched. Especially as the Swabians are the draw kings of the second half of the season anyway with eight draws and have only lost a few games – especially away from home

Freiburg – statistics & current form

The goalless draw in Cologne the previous week was almost the logical consequence of the clash between two teams with poor form. After all, the Billy Goats and Freiburg were two teams who have struggled to win in the second half of the season. Freiburg have only managed a win rate of 25% in the second half of the season. In fact, they have only managed one win at home in 2024, although that was almost four months ago.

Despite this, the Freiburg vs Heidenheim odds show a favorite role for the Streich team. However, Freiburg are not really favorites against the tough Swabians in our view. Therefore, you can consider placing a bet on another unbeaten game for the Swabians at the bookie Sunmaker. This bookie also offers a new customer bonus of 100% up to €100 upon registration

Victory for Christian Streich in last home game?

The long-serving, successful SC Freiburg coach would like to bid farewell to the end of his twelve-year tenure by qualifying for another European competition. And even if not everything has gone smoothly for Sportclub this season, Christian Streich’s farewell season has by no means been all negative. Despite the mixed second half of the season, the Breisgau side are in seventh place ahead of the 33rd matchday and have their sights firmly set on Europe.

A win against the newly promoted side next Saturday would, of course, help them get very close to this goal. However, Streich’s eleven had already encountered Heidenheim’s tenacity in the first half of the season. Despite leading twice, Freiburg ultimately lost in the last minute on the Schlossberg. As the Swabians have only lost one away game in the second half of the season, we predict that the Schmidt team will also annoy the Sportclub in their own living room when Freiburg face Heidenheim.

Predicted Freiburg line-up:

Heidenheim – Statistics & current form

The small Gallic village of Heidenheim has survived its first Bundesliga season unscathed. This was already clear before last weekend’s match against Mainz 05 due to Bochum’s victory at Union Berlin. Not many Bundesliga pundits had expected the Swabian underdogs to achieve such a commanding relegation, which was already certain three matchdays before the end of the season.

The even bigger surprise, however, is that the duel between the Swabians and the Badeners on the penultimate matchday is a duel for Europe. With a win in the Black Forest, Schmidt’s side could even draw level on points with the upcoming hosts. Nevertheless, the bookies do not believe that the Swabians will pull off a coup in Breisgau. The Freiburg vs Heidenheim odds therefore show a clear favorite role for the Streich team

Only one away defeat in the second half of the season

An important cornerstone on the Swabians’ road to relegation was the fact that Schmidt’s side were no longer just cannon fodder for the teams in the German top flight away from home in the second half of the season. The team from the Ostalb suffered just one defeat away from home this calendar year. There were also no wins away from home in a row, but the many easy points were an important piece in the mosaic on the way to the big goal of the season. Will the FCH also be able to take something tangible away from Breisgau?

The chances are certainly not too bad, as the upcoming opponents have been weakening at home for months and have not won at home since January of this year. A Freiburg vs Heidenheim prediction for another point win for the Swabians is therefore very promising.

Predicted line-up for Heidenheim:

Freiburg – Heidenheim head-to-head comparison / H2H result

The two teams have faced each other three times so far. The match in the preliminary round was not only the premiere of this encounter in the German top flight, but also Heidenheim’s first win against the Breisgau side. Streich’s side had previously won twice in the 2015/16 Bundesliga 2 season. Should SCF also succeed in doing so next Saturday, the bookies have decent odds for a home win for Freiburg against Heidenheim

Freiburg – Heidenheim betting tip

SC Freiburg are only in 13th place in the table for the second half of the season, a poor position largely due to their poor defensive performance in the second half of the season. Only bottom-placed Darmstadt conceded more goals than the club in the second half of the season. The visitors from Heidenheim, on the other hand, only failed to score in the second half of the season when they visited Augsburg.

However, conceding zero goals in foreign arenas is also not part of the Swabians’ standard repertoire this season. Keeper Müller has only been able to keep a clean sheet twice on his travels. That’s why we’re predicting that the Freiburg v Heidenheim game will also see Müller keep at least one clean sheet in the Black Forest – as will his counterpart Atubolu

In addition, we do not see the clear favorite role of Streich’s eleven in a Freiburg vs Heidenheim betting tip. Freiburg have been without a home win for almost four months and the Swabians only lost the away game in Augsburg in the second half of the season.
