Our tip: Heidenheim – Leverkusen: Handicap Leverkusen -1.5

17.02.2024 15:30

A good mood prevails in the camps of Heidenheim and Leverkusen. The Bundesliga newcomer entered the 22nd round from the ninth place (!) after another win, while the pharmaceutical club increased its lead in the league.

Heidenheim unexpectedly plundered Bremen’s Weserstadion (2-1) a week ago and with eight consecutive games without defeat (4-4-0) has climbed to the top half of the table, from where Werder Bremen can dethrone them in the pre-season. Coach Frank Schmidt’s charges have been scoring mainly at their home venue of Voith-Arena, where they have not lost since a 2-5 defeat to Augsburg in October (3-3-0) and have only conceded five times during that run.

Leverkusen dominated the showdown with reigning Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich in utterly convincing fashion, increasing their lead at the top of the competition to five points with a 3-0 win. Bayer remain in the game on three fronts and this is mainly due to the fact that they have not lost in the season (27-4-0), if this is still true after the trip to Baden-Württemberg, the 32nd game without defeat would equal Bayern’s German record!

What to bet on:

Coach Xabi Alonso’s charges are the only team in the competition to have won all their away games and they will not come up empty in Heidenheim either. I wouldn’t be afraid to put Leverkusen’s victory on the handicap.

Confidence:

7/10
