Prediction: 2-0
Heidenheim
Union Berlin will be looking to advance to the German Cup last 16 when they face Heidenheim at their Stadion An der Alten Forsterei on Wednesday evening. The capital club proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund, and they are now eyeing their fourth consecutive win on home soil in all competitions. All Behrens, Pantovic, Thorsby, and Leweling are pushing for a start, while midfielder Kevin Mohwald should miss out with injuries.
Heidenheim, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Holstein Kiel, which is yet another reason why we are going to put our money on Union Berlin. Keep in mind, though, that the hosts are eyeing their first win over the visiting side since April 2016 when they faced each other in the 2. Bundesliga. Jan Schoppner should be the only absentee in the away side.
