Bundesliga minnows Heidenheim will try to cause an upset when they host Borussia Dortmund on Saturday afternoon. Heidenheim have started their 2025-26 campaign slowly, losing their first two assignments. They opened the season with a 3-1 defeat against Wolfsburg before going into the international break with a 2-0 loss against RB Leipzig. These results leave them in the unwanted 17th spot. They must start winning and set the momentum for the long season ahead.
Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, will want to leave the Voith-Arena with all three points. BVB last won the league in the 2011-12 season, and will be keen to end the trophy drought this season. They started this campaign strongly, bouncing back from their 3-3 tie against FC St. Pauli to defeat Union Berlin 3-0 at home. Niko Kovac's side must create a winning momentum to keep up with the relentless pace at the top of the standings.

Our Heidenheim vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
Heidenheim will have to dig deep to get anything in this game. They have struggled against Dortmund recently, failing to win any of their last five clashes. In fact, their previous two meetings have ended in losses. We expect Dortmund to get an early lead on Saturday, having scored first in four of their last five meetings with the hosts. Statistics also show that we should expect a high-scoring game after the total goals exceeded 3.5 in three of their last four clashes. Both teams also scored in four of their previous five meetings. Dortmund should win 3-1 in an engaging clash.
Our prediction for Heidenheim vs Borussia Dortmund: Both teams to score.
