Dortmund to scrape past Heidenheim
Borussia Dortmund vs Heidenheim - 01/09/2023
3895
On Friday night, Dortmund play host to Bundesliga newcomers Heidenheim at Signal Iduna Park as BVB looks to return to winning ways in the Bundesliga.
Edin Terzic’s team has made an underwhelming start to the new Bundesliga season. They opened the campaign with a rather unconvincing 1-0 home win over Koln before being held to a 1-1 draw at Bochum last time out.
Despite the two low-scoring outings, Dortmund have still managed to score at least two goals in 11 of their last 14 matches in the Bundesliga.
One facet of Dortmund’s play that has been positive for a long time has been their home form, as BVB are unbeaten in 16 home games in the German top-flight on home soil, having recorded 14 victories in the process.
The home team has also been strong in front of goal at Signal Iduna Park, scoring at least two goals in 13 of those recent 14 wins.
The Bundesliga debutants have made an expectantly poor start to the Bundesliga campaign. Heidenheim opened their campaign with a 2-0 defeat at Wolfsburg before losing 3-2 at home to Hoffenheim.
The fact that they have conceded at least two goals in each of their last two games in the German top-flight is a major concern, especially visiting BVB, who, despite not being at their most prolific this season so far, are renowned for their attacking prowess on home soil.
One positive for Heidenheim heading into this clash is that they have scored at least two goals in five of their last seven away games in all competitions.
However, most of those games have been against lower-league teams.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Dortmund will record a narrow victory in another unconvincing display by Edin Terzic’s display.
