No way through

Xavi traps a through pass and looks set to get a shot away right in front of goal, but the Leipzig attacker slips at a crucial moment and Heidenheim can clear. It's been a half of very few chances at the Voith-Arena.

Henrichs booking

Henrichs brings down a flying Beste and that's a yellow card for the RBL man. Beste sends the subsequent free kick over the crossbar.

Rose's view on Heidenheim

"Heidenheim are a very awkward opponent, are enjoying a great season as a promoted side. They're a competitive team who make life tough for every opponent, often come from behind at home and even turn games around. They even come back against top teams. We've experienced it ourselves in the reverse fixture. They have the quality to win games in the Bundesliga."

Schmidt's view on Leipzig

"Leipzig are in top form. They've also won their last three away games. They're good at counter-pressing and press high. Then they transition well and have individual class, especially in attack with dangerous players like Openda, Xavi, Olmo and Šeško. We need to be ready to work hard defensively and cause problems for an opponent that's competing to be in the Champions League."

Leipzig's clear aim

For Die Roten Bullen, the goal couldn't be clearer with five games to go: securing a top-four finish. Last week's 3-0 triumph against Wolfsburg ensured Leipzig kept just ahead of Borussia Dortmund - in fifth - on goal difference.

Points adding up

Saturday's hosts took a point from their last match against Bochum on Matchday 29, meaning last season's second-division champions now have an eight-point buffer between themselves and the relegation zone.
