Heidenheim vs St. Gallen Prediction and Betting Tips | December 19th 2024

Heidenheim and St. Gallen return to action in the UEFA Europa Conference League when they lock horns at Voith-Arena on Thursday. Both sides head into the midweek clash off the back of contrasting results, with Enrico Maassen’s men claiming a comfortable home victory over FC Zurich.

Heidenheim failed to stop the rot last Sunday as they suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Stuttgart in their German Bundesliga clash. Frank Schmidt’s side have now lost seven back-to-back matches across all competitions, conceding a staggering 24 goals and scoring seven since a 2-0 victory over Hearts in the Conference League on November 7.

Heidenheim have picked up three wins from their five Conference League games to collect nine points and sit 15th in the standings, level on points with Olimpija, Pafos and KAA Gent.

On the other hand, St. Gallen snapped their run of six back-to-back games without a win last weekend when they edged out FC Zurich 2-0 in their Swiss Super League clash.

Maassen’s men have picked up six wins and seven draws from their 18 league games to collect 25 points and sit eighth in the table, two points off the championship round places.

St. Gallen now turn their focus to the Conference League, where they have managed just one win from their five games and sit 30th in the standings with just four points from a possible 15.

Heidenheim vs St.Gallen Prediction

St. Gallen have stumbled into the Conference League campaign, but they will be backing themselves against an out-of-sorts Heidenheim side who have lost seven straight matches.

However, home advantage gives Heidenheim a slight edge and we predict they will stop their dire run in front of their home supporters.

Prediction: Heidenheim 2-2 St.Gallen
