Match Time & Date:

15:30
Prediction: 2-1
Augsburg
Heidenheim will look to build on a 2-0 win over St. Pauli when they take on Augsburg in the Bundesliga round 2. Heidenheim have been producing fine performances in all competitions of late, but Sunday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for Frank Schmidt’s troops. Defender Thomas Keller should be the only absentee in the home team. The Bavarians, on the other hand, played out a 2-2 draw with Werder Bremen in the opening match of their Bundesliga campaign.
Anyhow, we are tempted to put our money on Heidenheim, who made a flying start to the season. The likes of Kristijan Jakic, Finn Dahmen, Masaya Okugawa, and Robert Gumny are out of contention with injuries for the home side, while defender Reece Oxford is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. In their last meeting in the national championship Augsburg defeated Heidenheim 1-0, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Fredrik Jensen):
Fredrik Jensen is a Norwegian footballer who plays for Belgian side Zulte Waregem as a midfielder. Jensen started his senior career at Odd and he made no less than 129 appearances for the Norwegian club (league) from 2012 to 2017. The 185-cm tall player then decided to take a step forward in his career and he joined Zulte Waregem in the summer of 2017.
Fredrik Jensen signed a four-year deal with the Belgian outfit and his contract should expire on June 30, 2021. Jensen’s main position is defensive midfield, but he is used as a central midfielder as well. The Zulte Waregem footballer, whose preferred foot is right, has yet to make his debut for Norway at senior level.
Fredrik Jensen made his Zulte Waregem debut in a thrilling 5-0 win over Eupen, with the Norwegian midfielder coming as a substitute for Onur Kaya in the dying minutes of the match. Jensen was born in Skien, Norway on May 18, 1993.
Highlighted Team (Augsburg):
Augsburg are a German football club founded in Augsburg, Bavaria back in 1907. Die Fuggerstadter play in German Bundesliga and with 12,200 members they are regarded as the largest football club in Bavaria. Augsburg wear white shirts and they host their rivals at WWK ARENA.
The capacity of the stadium is 30,660 and it has been the home of Augsburg since 2009. Augsburg won the Schwaben Cup 13 times and it has to be noted that they were promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time in 2011.
The club qualified for the Europa League 2015/2016 group stages and thanks to a 3-1 win over Partizan in Belgrade they booked their place in the last 32. However, Liverpool proved to be a big catch for the German outfit in the Europa League knockout stages.
Die Fuggerstadter’s main rivals are TSV 1860 Munich and there have always been fireworks when the two teams take on each other.
