Overview
- Union Berlin, which visits Heidenheim on Saturday, would reach 35 points with a win and move much closer to staying up.
- Union sits on 32 points, seven ahead of the relegation playoff and eleven clear of automatic relegation with 18 still available.
- Steffen Baumgart says the team has not hit its main goal yet and calls for a full 90-plus-minute performance to earn a result.
- Union has never beaten Heidenheim in the Bundesliga, including a first meeting this season decided by two stoppage-time goals.
- A Union victory would also increase last-place Heidenheim’s risk of dropping to the second division.
