Player to watch – Mathias Honsak
Heidenheim’s results have dipped of late, though Mathias Honsak has been performing well from an individual perspective and the Austrian attacking midfielder could be worth tracking on Thursday.
Honsak’s finishing has been sharp
Honsak has scored three times in his last six appearances for Heidenheim and the 27-year-old is likely to be one of his team’s chief goal-scoring threat again on Thursday.
