Wolfsburg aim to build on their 2–1 win over St. Pauli, and Daniel Bauer is expected to stick with the same starting XI after a much-needed morale boost. As Heidenheim are not regarded as good travellers, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. Despite the victory, the Wolves' defensive problems remain clear: Wolfsburg concede 2.50 goals per match overall and have yet to keep a clean sheet this season. However, they do carry constant threat going forward, scoring 1.83 goals per game at home and producing BTTS in 83% of their home fixtures. Expected goals numbers also reflect their aggressive style, with 1.49 xG at home.
Heidenheim continue to battle inconsistencies, heading into this match with just 0.80 PPG and four defeats in their last five. Despite their low scoring rate of 0.90 goals per match, they allow 2.30, making them vulnerable against more dynamic attacks. Their away defensive record is especially concerning, conceding 2.75 goals per game. The H2H history is heavily in Wolfsburg’s favour, with five wins from seven, and the fixture typically offers goals rather than control or structure.
Given Wolfsburg's H2H dominance and better attacking output, we are tempted to bet on Home Win. Over 2.5 goals and BTTS markets also seem interesting as both sides struggle at the back.
This Bundesliga match will be played on Saturday 17 January 2026 at 14:30.
