Heidenheim will travel to the MDCC Arena on Friday for their Bundesliga 2 clash with home side Magdeburg.
After a 2-3 triumph against Hamburg in the 2nd Bundesliga, Magdeburg will hope to win again.
In this match, Magdeburg managed 29% possession of the ball and 8 shots on target, including 6 on target.

Ransford Königsdörffer (58th) and Tom Sanne (93rd) scored for Hamburg.
The fact that Magdeburg was able to last for 90 minutes has happened all too rare lately. Indeed, Magdeburg has seen their defenses breached in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 9 goals in the process.
Heidenheim came into the game on the back of a 3-1 Bundesliga 2 win over Greeter Furth in their previous match.
In this game, Heidenheim had 40% possession and made 13 shots, including 6. Patrick Meinka (9′), Tim Kleindienst (33′) and Jan-Niklas Beste (56′) score for Heidenheim. Greater Furth hit 9 on target and 3 on target.
Branimir Hrgota (52′) scores the goal for Greaterfurt.
The statistics show that they have scored in 5 of their last 6 matches against Heidenheim, with the opposing team scoring a total of 9 goals. Heidenheim has room for improvement at the back. Whether that trend will continue in this game remains to be seen. Prior to this clash, Heidenheim had failed to win their last four league games at home.
