1. FC Heidenheim vs Werder Bremen

Werder Bremen and 1. FC Heidenheim have met three times in the Bundesliga and Werder are still yet to win (D1, L2). Of teams currently in the top flight, Heidenheim have only otherwise picked up points in every Bundesliga meeting with Union Berlin (4 times; W3, D1).

1. FC Heidenheim will finish no lower than 16th (relegation play-off) and are three points and six goals adrift of 15th place – since three points per win was introduced, only Borussia Mönchengladbach in 1997/98 and VfB Stuttgart in 2021/22 have ever made up a three-point deficit to 15th on the final matchday.

48 points from 33 games represents Werder Bremen’s best Bundesliga season in six years (50 points from 33 games in 2018/19). A win would see SVW reach the 50-point mark (51), something they have only managed once in 13 top-flight seasons since 2010/11 (53 points in 2018/19).

1. FC Heidenheim are unbeaten in their last three Bundesliga games (W2, D1) and could now go four successive league matches without defeat for the first time this season. However, they have only managed one win from their last eight home games, failing to score in each of their last three.

1. FC Heidenheim are bottom of the home standings with just 11 points this season. Werder Bremen are third in the away standings on 27 points, behind only FC Bayern (35) and Bayer 04 Leverkusen (34). SVW’s current tally of eight wins from 16 top-flight away games has only been higher in their 2003/04 title-winning season (11).
