Command Analysis

FC Heidenheim

Current Form
Heidenheim has faced two anticipated losses in the Bundesliga against Borussia Dortmund (2-4) and Freiburg (0-2). However, these setbacks did not break the team’s spirit. They responded with two victories, winning 2-0 against Mainz away and securing a 2-1 win at home against Olimpija Ljubljana in the Conference League. In the Bundesliga standings, Frank Schmidt's side currently sits eighth with nine points and ten goals scored. The attack is performing well, showcasing excellent finishing, and the threat can come from multiple players without a standout striker.

RB Leipzig

Current Form
The players of Leipzig approach the upcoming match with a less than favorable mindset. Recently, the Bulls suffered a 2-3 home defeat against Juventus in the Champions League.
