Fresh off booking their spot in the UEFA Europa Conference League, Heidenheim host Augsburg in the Bundesliga at the Voith-Arena on Sunday. Frank Schmid's men have lost the last four meetings with Augsburg.
Heidenheim secured Conference League football in midweek after beating Hacken 3-2 in the second leg of the play-off to complete a 5-3 aggregate win. Schmidt’s side now turn their attention to the Bundesliga, where they kicked off the new campaign with a 2-0 victory over St. Pauli at the Millerntor-Stadion.
The hosts have won 12 back-to-back matches across competitions and have gone 15 games without defeat since a 2-1 loss to RB Leipzig in April.
Augsburg, meanwhile, were denied a dream start to their Bundesliga campaign, as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Werder Bremen last Saturday. Before that, Jess Thorup’s men had kicked off the season with a resounding 4-1 victory over amateur side Viktoria Berlin in their DFB-Pokal opener.
