SV Darmstadt 98 vs 1. FC Heidenheim, 20 November 2026, 2. Bundesliga: form, head-to-head and match facts

SV Darmstadt 98 head into the clash on the back of a woeful first half of the season, languishing 18th with just four points from six games and a meagre 5‑13 goal return. Their visitors, 1. FC Heidenheim, sit comfortably third, having amassed 13 points after six fixtures and boasting a modest +2 goal difference (14‑12). The disparity in form is stark, but Darmstadt will be eager to turn the tide at home and claw back from the relegation zone, while Heidenwig aims to cement a top‑three berth and keep the pressure on the league leaders. Their recent head‑to‑head record offers little reassurance for the hosts, as Heidenheim have generally held the upper hand in previous meetings.
