In the 30th round of the Bundesliga, RB Leipzig will be playing away against league debutant Heidenheim. The match forecast and betting odds for these teams have been prepared by Dailysports analysts.
Heidenheim
Heidenheim, with the most modest budget in the Bundesliga, has astounded everyone. A team that had never before played at the Bundesliga level is not only confidently positioned in the middle of the league table, in tenth place, but also plays exceptionally well against the giants of German football. This season, Heidenheim has drawn twice against Borussia Dortmund and recently sensationally defeated Bayern Munich 3-2. In the previous round, Heidenheim played a draw away against Bochum, a team fighting for survival.
RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig occupies the fourth position in the Bundesliga but is ahead of Borussia Dortmund solely due to a better goal difference. Therefore, dropping points against Heidenheim is categorically unacceptable for Marco Rose's team. Furthermore, a victory could allow Leipzig to pull away from Dortmund, who in this round plays against the new German champions Bayer Leverkusen. The Bulls are in excellent form. In the previous round, Leipzig crushed Wolfsburg 3-0 and prior to that defeated Freiburg 4-1. In the last five matches, Leipzig has accumulated 13 points.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history

- These teams have played a total of 7 matches against each other. Heidenheim has one victory to their credit, achieved in 2015 back in the Bundesliga 2.
Heidenheim vs RB Leipzig prediction
Heidenheim is capable of causing problems for any opponent in home matches, but Leipzig is still the favorite for the match. I bet on the away team's victory.
