Heidenheim vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The hosts are set for an intense battle against Dortmund in the upcoming Bundesliga outing.

FC Heidenheim 1846 are all ready to host Borussia Dortmund in their next Bundesliga fixture on February 1. The hosts are very close to the relegation zone and are in need of a win. Die Schwarzgelben have shown lacklustre performances this season and because of this, they reside in the 11th spot in the points table.

Heidenheim will be low on confidence as they lost their last couple of league games. Coming up against Dortmund will be a big task for them also. The hosts are surely desperate for a win if they want to avoid the relegation to the 2. Bundesliga. Heidenheim will surely have to step up the game.
