MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: HOME WIN
Heidenheim still have their eyes on the playoffs with Frank Schmidt’s boys occupying sixth place, following a rare 1-0 away league win over Aue last time out. The team have been very strong at Voith Arena this season having secured seven wins on their own patch, drawing three and losing only four times. Only six other teams have picked up more home points than Heidenheim (24) thus far. However, they have lost two and won only one of their last three on home soil in the league.
Since beating Paderborn 1-0 in the league at Benteler Arena in early March, St. Pauli have picked up just two points form their last five league fixtures. After losing both to Hamburg and Sandhausen via 4-0 scorelines which represented their biggest league defeats of the season, St. Pauli followed that up with an uneventful 0-0 stalemate against rock-bottom Duisburg on home soil before losing 2-1 away at Holstein Kiel and holding in-form Bielefeld to a 1-1 home draw last weekend.
After stopping the rot with last weekend’s win at Erzgebirgs Stadium, I can see Heidenheim overcome an uninspiring St. Pauli this weekend. Back the home victory.
SECOND PREDICTION: ODD/EVEN - ODD
Heidenheim’s last five league wins have all been by a one-goal margin. With that in mind, put some money on odd total goals to be netted in this one.
HEAD TO HEAD
Heidenheim have won each of their last four home league meetings with St. Pauli, scoring nine goals and conceding only two along the way.
