ℹ️ Team News: Heidenheim

There aren’t many selection issues, with just a single fitness concern for the Heidenheim gaffer Frank Schmidt to contend with from a near full-strength group. Elidon Qenaj (Knee Injury) is sidelined.

We are thinking that Heidenheim will probably use the 4-4-2 system, beginning the first half with Kevin Mueller, Omar Traore, Patrick Mainka, Tim Siersleben, Jonas Foehrenbach, Eren Dinkci, Lennard Maloney, Norman Theuerkauf, Jan-Niklas Beste, Marvin Pieringer and Tim Kleindienst.

📰 Team News: Werder Bremen

Werder Bremen manager Ole Werner has some current player fitness concerns. Naby Keïta (Tear in the abductor muscle), Felix Agu (Surgery) and Marvin Ducksch (Hamstring Injury) will not be playing here.

We believe Werder seem likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation, going with Jiri Pavlenka, Amos Pieper, Niklas Stark, Marco Friedl, Mitchell Weiser, Romano Schmid, Christian Gross, Jens Stage, Anthony Jung, Dawid Kownacki and Nick Woltemade.

💡 Prediction

Our feeling is that Werder Bremen might have a difficult job to find the net against this Heidenheim side who should score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We’ve gone for a very competitive game with a 1-0 victory for Heidenheim at the end of this one.
