Neutral35%
Heidenheim's overall performance has not been particularly stable, with a record of 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, showing dependence on each specific match.
Average defensive efficiency (1.3 goals per game), with only 2 clean sheets in 10 games, reflects a lack of solidity but not yet a serious issue.
The flexible tactical playing style with various formations such as 4-3-3, 3-4-3, and 4-2-2-2 is used depending on the opponent, demonstrating adaptability but also potentially leading to a lack of focus in crucial matches.
Reliance on key players such as Budu Zivzivadze (who has played 10 consecutive matches) could be a balancing factor in the lineup, but has not yet created clear diversity
Negative25%
The lack of defensive solidity, particularly when facing strong teams, is evident in heavy losses such as 0-2 to Mainz and 0-3 to Hamburger SV
The absence of key players such as Leart Paqarda (33 matches missed) could have a significant impact on the defense, although Patrick Mainka and Jonas Föhrenbach have tried to compensate.
The lack of initiative in matches against strong opponents, with a low number of corners (for example: 0 corners against Lugano and 0 against Mainz), reflects a lack of control over the game.

Neutral30%
