Wolfsburg vs. Heidenheim: Final to stay in the league!
On January 17, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. VfL Wolfsburg and 1. FC Heidenheim will meet in the Volkswagen Arena. A duel that is of crucial importance for both teams: While Wolfsburg hopes to secure a place in midfield, Heidenheim is fighting for sporting survival. The betting provider Tipico Wolfsburg is the favorite with odds of 1.65, while Heidenheim's win is rated at 4.90.
Wolfsburg's last five competitive games show a mixed picture. After a bitter 8-1 defeat against Bayern Munich at the start of the year, the Wolves beat St. Pauli 2-1, which saved them from falling into the relegation places. Club coach Daniel Bauer emphasizes the importance of using the offensive power, because in the last five games the team scored 12 goals but also conceded 15 goals. The home record also shows that the Wolves have only managed two wins in their last five home games.
Focus on the shape of the teams
In contrast, Heidenheim is struggling with its current table situation. The team is in last place with just three wins from 17 games and has the worst goal difference in the league (-22). In the last four matches, Heidenheim only got one point from a draw, which increases the pressure on coach Frank Schmidt. Injury problems are doing the rest: Adam Kölle, Budu Zivzivadze and Leart Paqarada are out, which doesn't make the team's situation any easier.
Wolgast has a slight advantage in direct duels, with three wins from the last five meetings against Heidenheim. Heidenheim's last win against Wolfsburg was some time ago, which increases hope in Lower Saxony. Furthermore, despite the injury list that affects Dženan Pejčinović and Mattias Svanberg, Wolfsburg must deliver with a tactical formation that guarantees victories.
The look ahead
The fans not only expect goals, but also an exciting game. For betting fans there is a odds of 1.60 on over 2.5 goals. Many believe a 3-1 win for Wolfsburg is very likely, which promises odds of 10.00. The fans hope that the home game against the bottom team will be an exciting and goal-rich encounter.
The game will also be broadcast exclusively on Sky and in a live stream on WOW and is likely to be another highlight on the agenda of football fans in Germany. It remains to be seen whether Wolfsburg can win back their own fans with a strong performance.
