Prediction: 2-1
Heidenheim
After dropping two points in a goalless draw with Werder Bremen, Borussia Dortmund will look to return to winning ways in Bundesliga when they take on Heidenheim in the round 3 opener. The Yellow-Blacks have big ambitions for the 2024/2025 Bundesliga campaign and they must win games like this if they are to regain the trophy. Pacey winger Karim Adeyemi is back from the international duty, while defender Nico Schlotterbeck misses out through suspension. B
oth Giovanni Reyna and Serhou Guirassy are sidelined with injuries. The visitors, on the other hand, aim to keep their 100% record intact following back-to-back wins over St. Pauli and Augsburg. As Heidenheim are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, we are tempted to bet on over 2.5 goals. Both Lennard Maloney and Thomas Keller are injured for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Julian Brandt):
Julian Brandt is one of the most promising wingers in Germany. He started playing football in his hometown, Bremen, at SC Borgfeld, moving to FC Oberneuland, after which he joined VLF Wolfsburg’s youth academy. With 27 goals in his 48 games during two seasons with the Wolves, Brandt recommended himself to Bayer 04 Leverkusen, signing a five-and-a-half-year contract in January 2014.
The 22-year-old winger prefers to play on the left flank, but he can also provide help on the right side, as well as an attacking midfielder. During the season 2015/2016, Julian Brandt netted goals in six consecutive games, becoming the youngest player since Gerd Muller to achieve this.
The good performances in the season made Joackim Low call the youngster in Germany’s preliminary 27-man squad for the Euro 2016 and he made his first appearance for the senior squad in May 2016, against Slovakia. He was a part of the Germany squad at the Summer Olympics, where Brandt and his teammates won the silver medal. In the summer of 2018, Julian Brandt made the World Cup team.
