After qualifying for the league phase of the Conference League on Thursday, Heidenheim are set to host Augsburg at Voith-Arena on Sunday in their second game of the 2024-25 Bundesliga season.
The home team won 2-0 on August 25 against newly-promoted St Pauli, and are currently third in the table, while the visitors are eighth with one point after they drew 2-2 against Werder Bremen on August 24.
We say: Heidenheim 1-1 Augsburg
Augsburg should come into the game as favourites considering Heidenheim's tiring match against Hacken, but it is difficult to see how the visitors can win considering their poor away form.
It would not be surprising if the hosts started sluggishly but managed to get back into the game after Augsburg failed to fully take advantage of their hosts' vulnerabilities.

Bayern vs. Freiburg (Sunday, 4.30pm)

Vincent Kompany will hope that his first Bundesliga home game as Bayern Munich boss goes more smoothly than his side's win last week against Wolfsburg when they host Freiburg on Sunday at Allianz Arena.
The home team won 3-2 against Wolfsburg on August 25 and are currently sixth in the table with three points, while the visitors are second with three points after they beat Stuttgart 3-1 on August 24.
We say: Bayern Munich 4-1 Freiburg
Although Bayern have still not solved their defensive issues, their attacking prowess should be more than enough to earn them a second consecutive league victory.
However, it would not be surprising if Freiburg managed to take an early lead and cause their hosts difficulty in the first half.
