LiontipsHeidenheim vs Chelsea. Forecast (odds 2.40) and bets on the Conference League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Heidenheim clearly does not have the strength and experience to perform equally successfully in several tournaments. So far, they have only been able to play at a high level in the Conference League, where, however, the German club did not have any particularly formidable opponents in the three opening rounds. Victories over Olimpija Ljubljana, Papas and Hearts did not cause much surprise. Today is the first real test of strength. In the Bundesliga, at the start of the season, they were still more or less able to take points, but gradually the results began to decline. After 11 rounds, Frank Schmidt charges are in 15th place in the table, while they are five points ahead of the direct relegation zone. Heidenheim lost in the last three rounds of the national championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bush, Janes and Naegele are all out today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Heidenheim have not won in the first half in their last five matches
- Four of the team previous five Conference League games have seen three or fewer goals scored.
Probable line-up: Müller - Traore, Mainka, Siersleben, Theuerkauf - Maloney - Conte, Kerber, Beck, Kaufmann - Breunig.
Current form
According to bookmakers, Chelsea is one of the main favourites for the Conference League title and so far it has fully justified this status. The Londoners have collected the maximum nine points in three rounds and are leading the standings with an impressive goal difference (16:3). Their most notable achievement was the 8:0 rout of Noah on their home field. In addition, they managed to beat Gent (4:2) and Panathinaikos (4:1) with class. Enzo Maresca men have also been successful in the Premier League this season and are aiming to at least make it into the top 4. After 12 rounds, the "aristocrats" are in third place with 22 points. In the last round, they managed to beat Leicester on the road with a score of 2:1.
Disqualifications and injuries
Neto, Kellyman and James will be out with injuries today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Four of Chelsea last five Conference League games have seen at least three goals scored
- The Aristocrats have opened the scoring in their last five Conference League games
Probable line-up: Jergensen - Disasi, Adarabioyo, Badiashile, Veiga - Fernandes, Dewsbury-Hall - Sancho, Felix, Mudrik - Nkunku.

11.00Tip and bets
In the Conference League, using a serious rotation of the squad, Chelsea still achieves victories due to their class, regardless of where they have to play. All three victories were won by the Londoners with a difference of more than one goal. Heidenheim scored the maximum nine points, but the German team has not yet had opponents of Chelsea level. The other day in the Bundesliga, Frank Schmidt team could not do anything against Bayer (2:5), it is unlikely that they will be able to play better with the "aristocrats".
Our prediction is Chelsea win with Asian handicap (-1) at odds of 1.84
Bet on total
In the previous round, Chelsea scored eight goals against Noah, and before that they broke through the defense of Gent and Panathinaikos four times. We don’t think we should expect a closed game today, especially since Heidenheim is distinguished by its clear implementation of its moments.
The second bet is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 2.40
Bet on corners
Let take a look at the promising trend in corners. In eight of their previous nine away matches in European competitions, Chelsea have not taken more than six corners. Based on these statistics, we recommend another option for betting.
Prediction - Chelsea corners total under 6.5 with odds of 1.57
