Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Koln play host to Heidenheim at their RheinEnergieStadion in the Bundesliga round 17. The Billy Goats have been struggling in front of goal of late, with the team failing to find the net in the previous three league matches, but they are still seen as favourites to beat Heidenheim on home soil. Austria midfielder Dejan Ljubicic is a major doubt after catching a cold, while all Mark Uth, Leart Paqarada, and Sargis Adamyan are out of contention with injuries.
Frank Schmidt’s troops, on the other hand, are on a three-game winning run in the German top flight, but beating Koln on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. In their last meeting at RheinEnergieStadion the two sides played out a 1-1 draw. The visitors will be without Denis Thomalla, Jan Schoppner, Thomas Keller, and Elidon Qenaj in Saturday’s clash.
