Stats, facts, key info – all you need for Heidenheim v BVB | OneFootball

Undefeated in the league, advancing in the DFB-Pokal: BVB has had a successful start to the new season. Even though the Black and Yellows let a two-goal lead slip away in the 3:3 draw at St. Pauli. Ironically, a Dortmund player wants to stop the trend in the duel against 1. FC Heidenheim (September 13, 3:30 PM).

He stands in goal for FCH, goes by the name Diant Ramaj, and still has a contract with Borussia until 2029. In the second half of last season, he guarded the net for FC Copenhagen on loan and won the double of championship and cup with the capital club in Denmark. He is on loan again until summer 2026 – this time within the Bundesliga. On the third matchday, Ramaj will have a reunion with his parent club.

Direct duels between the two clubs have taken place four times in history – specifically after FCH's promotion to the top tier in 2023. In Heidenheim's debut year in the top tier, they fought for two draws (2:2, 0:0). However, in the past season, where they only survived through relegation, BVB won twice: at home 4:2, away 2:1.

Also worth mentioning are six matches between the Swabians and Borussia Dortmund's U23 in the 3rd League. Between 2009 and 2014, FCH won three times, BVB II once. Two duels ended in a draw with a total goal difference of 13:6.

Guirassy scores at will

The current form favors the Black and Yellows. Across seasons, they have been undefeated in ten Bundesliga games (8 W, 2 D). Currently, only FC Bayern Munich has a better record. The record champions from Säbener Straße have been unbeaten in eleven BL matches (8 W, 3 D). Since matchday 27 of the 2024/25 season, no Bundesliga team has scored more points than Borussia (26, like FC Bayern).

Additionally, BVB's professionals have scored at least three goals in seven consecutive Bundesliga matches. This has never happened before. Serhou Guirassy alone accounts for nine goals, having scored in each of these encounters.

In stark contrast is Heidenheim's record. In the last ten Bundesliga home games, there has been only one win for FCH (3:1 against Holstein Kiel). Apart from a 0:0 draw against VfL Bochum, they suffered eight defeats.
