Bundesliga matchup, with significant implications for both teams.

Their home performance remains strong; however, they have won only once in their last six outings. Conversely, Heidenheim sits precariously at 14th place with merely 10 points and is coming off a disappointing 3-1 loss to Wolfsburg. Both teams are grappling with offensive difficulties—Leverkusen has scored just once in their last three matches while Heidenheim has managed two goals over their last five games .

Prediction for Bayer Leverkusen vs Heidenheim

Bayer Leverkusen are the favourites coming into this fixture. They have definitely dropped points this year, but are expected to secure all three points over the weekend.

Prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 Heidenheim

Martin Terrier could be an alternative for the latter. With Nordi Mukiele recovering from an injury picked up against Stuttgart at the start of the month, Jeremie Frimpong will continue to play at right-wing-back.

Alonso continues to be without Amine Adli, who is expected to be sidelined until at least January with a broken fibula.

Line-ups:

Bayer Leverkusen possible starting lineup: Hradecky; Tapsoba, Tah, Hincapie; Frimpong, Xhaka, Garcia, Grimaldo; Terrier, Wirtz; Boniface

Heidenheim possible starting lineup: Muller; Traore, Mainka, Gimber, Fohrenbach; Schoppner, Maloney, Dorsch; Wanner, Pieringer, Scienza

Defensively, if Edmond Tapsoba is unfit after picking up an injury while on international duty then Robert Andrich could move into Bayer’s back three alongside Jonathan Tah and Piero Hincapie.
