Heidenheim will host Werder Bremen at the Voith-Arena on Saturday in another round of the 2025-26 Bundesliga campaign. The home side have struggled for results in the league this season and seem set to battle relegation for a second consecutive campaign as they sit rock-bottom in the table with just three points from six matches.
After picking up their first win of the league campaign last month, Heidenheim suffered a 1-0 defeat to Stuttgart just before the international break and could have no major complaints about the result after managing just one shot on target throughout the contest.
Werder Bremen, meanwhile, have had a slow start to life under new boss Horst Steffen but remain hopeful of a top-half finish. They returned to winning ways last time out, beating St. Pauli 1-0 with summer signing Samuel Mbangula scoring the sole goal of the contest just two minutes after kick-off.
The visitors sit 12th in the table with seven points from six matches and will be looking to add to that tally when they return to action this weekend.

Heidenheim vs Werder Bremen Prediction
Heidenheim have lost all but one of their six league games this season and will need to improve their offensive output if they are to climb up the table.
Die Werderaner's latest result ended a run of back-to-back defeats, and they will now be looking to kick on from that when they play on Saturday. They have struggled for results on the road of late, but remain the stronger side ahead of the weekend clash and should win this one.
