The only dilemma in German football right now is who will be the last participant in the Bundesliga next season. After 2-2 in the first leg, we are not much closer to knowing who will have the opportunity to play at the highest level of national football in the 2025/26 season. In the first match, Elversberg had a big 2-0 lead at halftime and a big opportunity for a significant advantage in the matchup, but Heidenheim found their game in the second 45 minutes and avoided defeat.
Elversberg shocked everyone with their performance in the 2. Bundesliga, as their squad before the season seemed more like a mid-table team. The team from Waldstadion Kaiserlinde was even closer to direct promotion, but Elversberg stayed one point short. Horst Steffen's team is undefeated in the last nine matches, so Elversberg will surely welcome Heidenheim on Monday night with a lot of confidence.
Heidenheim had some good parts of the season, but terrible runs during autumn and winter cost them a better position on the table. Heidenheim seems to be an improved team lately, as they have lost only one of the last five matches. Even in the last game against Elversberg, Heidenheim lacked consistency, so they will travel to Elversberg without an advantage.
Elversberg vs Heidenheim pick: Over 2.5 goals
Elversberg scored ten goals in the last four matches. On the other hand, Heidenheim have a 6:6 goal difference in the previous three games. We should expect another high-scoring match on Monday night.

The big story for Elversberg will be the return of Lukas Pinckert after serving a suspension. The defender is one of the best players in the team this season. Patryk Dragon and Frederik Jakel remain unavailable.
