Augsburg vs Heidenheim prediction 15.02.2026 | Bundesliga

Augsburg are playing their 15th consecutive season in the Bundesliga, where they have mostly in the lower part of the league's table. This season, they are once again around their usual placement, sitting in 13th with 22 points from 21 matches. However, their performances have improved significantly since the coaching change in early December. Despite suffering a defeat to Mainz in their last game, Augsburg have looked pretty competitive and consistent in recent weeks. That has been especially the case at home, where they are on a six-game unbeaten run, which they will look to extend against a fellow relegation contender.

The coach eventually said he wasn't too unhappy with the performances, implying the decisions against his team were unfair and cost them points. 

After a magnificent first season in the Bundesliga in 2023/24, when they finished 8th, Heidenheim had a really bad following one, having to secure survival through the playout. This season, they have been even worse and are stuck at the bottom of the league with only 13 points from 21 matches. While they are only six points away from the safe zone, their recent performances have been a massive concern. At the moment, they are on an eight-game unbeaten run and are in a very difficult situation. The bookies see them as the main candidate for relegation, with odds of only 1.07 to return to 2. Bundesliga. 

After a 2:0 loss against Hamburg SV, coach Frank Schmidt spoke to the media. He said the scoreline summed up the game and that they hadn't performed well. The coach acknowledged how hard the season was and that they had only won three games in 21 rounds. Schmidt openly criticized the performance but noted they have to stay committed despite their difficult situation.
