Heidenheim – Bavaria. Forecast and announcement for the match of the German championship

On December 21, the match of the 15th round of the German Bundesliga 1 will be held at the Voith Arena, in which Heidenheim will meet with Bayern. The match will start at 18:30 Kyiv time.

Heidenheim

The team achieved all its successes under Frank Schmidt. Having completed his career as a football player, he took up the project at an almost amateur level and gradually climbed the ladder of the divisions. Having finally made his debut in the Bundesliga, the newcomer immediately made his way to the European Cups. But, having not really shown themselves in the Conference League, at the same time they limited themselves to only 29 points in the championship – luckily, that was enough to finish in sixteenth place – and then won the play-out against Elfersberg, with a decisive goal in the 90+ minute of the second match.

However, so far it seems that the departure was simply postponed to 2026. Now only Mainz showed a worse result: only three victories and eleven points were taken. On the other hand, there are still enough of those who did poorly in the first round, and the situation does not look hopeless. In case of victory, there will now be a chance to jump to the fifteenth position.

Bavaria

The club, of course, has not forgotten the shameful season before last. In the end, it was not for nothing that Kompany later appeared in Munich – higher-status coaches at that time were not interested in this prospect. In 2024/2025, Vincent achieved his main task, in the form of winning a silver salad bowl. But at the same time, his wards won only the Bundesliga, having been eliminated from other tournaments.

Now the team wins the lion’s share of matches. Only Arsenal lost, and only with Union and, in the last round, with Mainz – against the main disappointment of this championship, they played back to 2:2 at home due to another goal by Kane, who converted a penalty in the 87th minute.

Statistics of personal meetings

There were five head-to-head matches in total. And once, on the same field, Heidenheim still managed to win – all other matches remained for the Munich giants.

Forecast

Bookmakers think about only one thing: how solidly the champion will win. After a misfire in the last round, you can take a handicap of -2 goals (coefficient – 1.6).
