Werder Bremen vs Heidenheim: match statistics
Werder Bremen has a clear advantage as the host in this relegation battle. Despite the poor form of both teams (0.2 points per match each in the last 5 games), Werder presents better home statistics with 27% wins and an average of 1.09 goals per match at home. Heidenheim, conversely, has catastrophic results away with just 9% wins, 82% losses, and an average of 2.18 goals conceded per match, failing to keep a single clean sheet. A key factor is also Werder's higher xG efficiency in home matches (1.68) compared to Heidenheim's xG on the road (1.26). Considering the desperation of both teams fighting for survival and the statistical advantage of the hosts, I expect a difficult but winning match for Werder Bremen.
