Matchday 24 in the German Bundesliga sees 10th-place Heidenheim playing host to sixth-placed Eintracht Frankfurt at the Voith-Arena on Saturday. Mid-table Heidenheim will be looking to move up a few positions in the rankings as they currently trail ninth-place by one point and both eighth and seventh-place by just two points. The hosts are coming off a 2-2 away draw with Union Berlin last weekend, snatching the eventual equalizer in the 71st minute. Frank Schmidt’s squad has been a tough side to beat in recent weeks but they’ve also found it difficult to turn draws into wins. The hosts have drawn five of their last seven Bundesliga matches but have suffered just a single defeat in their last 10 games overall. Heidenheim have been a good side at home this season with a 5-3-3 record, earning an average of 1.64 points per home fixture compared to just 0.83 on the road.

Eintracht Frankfurt come into this matchup off the back of a 2-2 home draw with Wolfsburg last weekend. They were able to salvage a point at the death as Omar Marmoush netted the equalizer in stoppage time. The result has Die Adler sitting sixth in the standings with a record of 8-10-5 for a points total of 34. Frankfurt now occupy a Europa Conference League position, leading seventh-place by four points. They’ll be hoping to cut into the deficit between themselves and fifth-place Leipzig for a Europa League spot, who they currently trail by six points. After suffering defeat to USG in the Conference League, Frankfurt are now on a run of six consecutive matches without a victory. Their defense has really struggled during this time as the visitors have now allowed nine goals in their last four matches across all competitions.
