Stuttgart vs Heidenheim

The future position of Heidenheim in Bundesliga may be relegated to the bottom three if Stuttgart wins at MHPArena on Friday.

The last match brought Stuttgart an 11th-place standing with 41 points after drawing 4-4 against Union Berlin but the away side Union Berlin sits as the third-worst team in the league following their 4-0 loss at Bayern Munich on April 19.

The match became intense as both teams managed to score four objectives in the first half against zero point five four xG by Stuttgart.

Die Roten maintained their exceptional goalscoring run with 12 scores in their last four matches just like they scored during their previous nine games.

The team under Sebastian Hoeness won 3-1 against Heidenheim in the Bundesliga on December 15 following their achievement of 11 goals across five matches against Betzenhausen.

Stuttgart managed two victories and one draw while suffering one loss through four contests although they had no success in their last six matches during which they failed to win and lost four times.

MHPArena has become an unlucky stadium for Hoeness's team because they have lost six of their past eight matches at this venue.

Heidenheim suffered three Bundesliga goals prior to the halfway point and managed a total of two normal playing-field shots which included just one from within the penalty box.

Despite expectations to the contrary the visitors claimed points against league leaders Bayern Munich as they posted three dry matches and gave away eight goals.

If Frank Schmidt's team wins this weekend and Heidenheim loses against Stuttgart, they will be eight points ahead of both Hoffenheim, who are in 15th position, and St Pauli, who are in 14th place.

The visiting team has lost three straight going into Friday's match, and they have only won three of their last 23 games while losing 15.

The visitors have been far more resilient away from home, as seen by the fact that they have only lost once in their previous five away games, drew twice and won twice.
