Union Berlin vs Heidenheim Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga

Prediction published on 24/02/2024, 01:30  by Kennedy Kechula in Bundesliga Predictions

Union Berlin will be at home to welcome Heidenheim looking to climb further away from the relegation zone in the Bundesliga. They come to this match sitting in 13th place, three points behind 10th-placed Heidenheim. Union seem to have completely gotten over the struggles that plagued them in the first half of the season. At one point they were rooted at the bottom of the standings but are now eight points clear of the bottom three. Nenad Bjelica has done an outstanding job since his appointment back in November and has overseen five of the team’s seven wins. Union are currently unbeaten in three outings and have won back-to-back games. Both wins have been by similar 1-0 score lines with the recent coming away to Hoffenheim. They have now amassed 24 points and are nine points from the top six. Union will be without Kevin Volland who was sent off last time out.

Heidenheim won the back in September 1-0. It was a different team that they faced then but will nonetheless be confident of a win here. Frank Schmidt’s men are coming off a 2-1 defeat to Leverkusen that put to a halt an eight-game unbeaten run. They had won four times in this period with two of the wins coming away from home. The loss to the league leaders saw them drop six points from the European places. They will be keen to not have this gap extended here. Heidenheim have also won seven league games and haven’t lost in their last four away fixtures. Last time out on the road in the league, they defeated Bremen 2-1.
