Magdeburg welcome the visitors Heidenheim in the German 2.Bundesliga – Round 27. The match will be held on Friday, March, 29th, at the MDCC-Arena (Magdeburg).
Finding themselves near the relegation zone, the hosting Magdeburg attained 2 points in 4 recent rounds, so, now they run only 2 points off the 2 outsiders. The team take the 16th line that implies playoffs for survival in the league (the 15th Sandhausen have the same tally, but they are better by the additional parameters).

The visiting Heidenheim still have chances, but they worsened after the last 5 rounds – the side may fight for the 3rd place that they are 5 points below. The 3rd line gives an opportunity to compete in knockouts for a pass to the elite division. Notably, in the last 5 rounds, Heidenheim racked up only 5 points, having registered 2 draws and 2 wins. The mini-crisis seems to be in the past though, as the travelers on the day beat the third-placed Union Berlin in the last fixture.
There are 10 places between the Friday opponents. Heidenheim won in the last round, while Magdeburg ended level. The hosts gained only 4 wins this campaign and 11 stalemates, whereas Heidenheim drawed 9 times. The guests look favorites, but we don’t advise looking for winners in the clash concerned. The match will most likely turn underscoring. Though they host the game, Magdeburg will probably try to secure their goal and attack the opponents at times. They will possibly choose to get 1 point safely instead of risking and going for 3 ones. 7 of the hosts’ 8 encounters produced under 2.5 goals. Heidenheim are neither effective on the road. Only 3 of their previous 9 outings saw over 2.5 goals. Given that the league is about to finish and the sides focus on the points, may it be the minimum number, rather than on an entertaining performance, it is very likely that the Friday head-to-head will not register over 2 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
