RB Leipzig go up against FC Heidenheim this coming Sunday for a Bundesliga meeting at Voith-Arena.

Two places behind the league-leaders, RB Leipzig claimed 11 points from five rounds, while FC Heidenheim amassed nine points. They now rank as number 6 in the Bundesliga standings.

FC Heidenheim can actually leapfrog RB Leipzig in the table with a win this coming Sunday. However, judging by the prices we get from the bookmakers, this seems rather unlikely to happen.

When it comes to goal-scoring FC Heidenheim could be more prolific, scoring 18 times in their previous ten games. That is an average of 1.8 goals per game in which, they conceded 12 times. This is an average of 1.2 a game, achieving a clean sheet in four games.

RB Leipzig scored 18 goals, conceded eight and managed four clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

RB Leipzig won 2-1 and 2-1 in the two most recent meetings with FC Heidenheim, and go into their upcoming match with a psychological advantage.

FC Heidenheim vs RB Leipzig Prediction

FC Heidenheim Form

FC Heidenheim recorded two wins in their last three matches, but started off by losing 0-3 against Freiburg. They responded by beating Mainz 05 0-2, and followed that up by winning 2-1 against Olimpija Ljubljana. FC Heidenheim claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Bundesliga. They also drew one and lost two, as they scored 13 and conceded nine goals.

Last season, FC Heidenheim managed to avoid the drop and they are now aiming to move up the ladder and secure a more comfortable position this time around.

RB Leipzig Form

RB Leipzig have a win and a draw to show from their last three matches. They first finished even in a 0-0 draw with St. Pauli, before they won a game against Augsburg with a 4-0 scoreline. Unfortunately for them, this was followed by a 2-3 defeat at the hands of Juventus. RB Leipzig won half their previous six away matches in the Bundesliga, as well as seeing three draws and suffering zero defeats. They scored 12 goals whilst conceding seven.

It's likely an ambitious goal, but after their impressive fourth place finish last season, RB Leipzig have set their sights on a spot on the podium this season.

Bookmakers have RB Leipzig down as rather big favourites for the win against FC Heidenheim. While the hosts will obviously come out fighting, we still think the visitors will prevail in the end.

FC Heidenheim are yet to play a draw this season, in stead recording three wins and two defeats in the Bundesliga. RB Leipzig enjoy a record of three wins, two draws and zero defeats in the Bundesliga.
