Stats, facts, info – all you need to know about BVB v Heidenheim | OneFootball

The encounter between Borussia Dortmund and 1. FC Heidenheim (February 1, 5:30 p.m.) is no ordinary match for Diant Ramaj. After all, the BVB goalkeeper is only on loan to the Bundesliga’s bottom club.

Ramaj’s record at FCH is mixed. While he played the full 90 minutes in all 21 competitive matches for the club from the Ostalb, he managed to keep a clean sheet only once. He earned his clean sheet in the first round of the DFB Cup with a 5-0 win against regional league side Bahlinger SC. In contrast, the German-Kosovar conceded at least one goal in every Bundesliga match. In 19 top-flight games, the BVB loanee has already had to pick the ball out of his net 42 times.

Since Heidenheim only made their Bundesliga debut in 2023, there have only been five matches against the Black and Yellows so far. FCH finished their promotion season in a remarkable eighth place, qualifying for the Conference League. Against Dortmund, the newcomer managed to earn two draws at the time (2-2, 0-0).

However, in the following three encounters with the Black and Yellows, Heidenheim suffered defeat each time. After a 2-4 and a 1-2 loss in the previous season, the team from the currently second-smallest Bundesliga city (after Sinsheim) lost 0-2 at home in the first half of the 2024/25 season. After an early red card for striker Budu Zivzivadze, Serhou Guirassy and Maximilian Beier scored the goals for BVB’s comfortable away win.

Heidenheim on Course for Second Division

Although the Westphalians lost their two most recent Champions League matches 0-2 (Tottenham, Inter), things are going well for Borussia in the Bundesliga. After 19 rounds, they have suffered only one defeat (1-2 in Munich). In addition, Dortmund have scored three goals in each of their four matches this year. After the 3-3 draw in Frankfurt to start the year, three wins followed.

Heidenheim’s statistics, on the other hand, make for much less pleasant reading. In their last six Bundesliga matches, the team from the Ostalb has not managed a single win (2 draws, 4 losses). Overall, FCH has only achieved three victories this season. With 13 points, the club is not yet completely adrift, but is likely to face major difficulties in staying up for a third consecutive season.
