Both sides know that a cup tie can turn on a moment of quality, and Jeddeloh will be keen to prove they can compete with a 2. Bundesliga outfit. Heidenheim, fresh from a 3‑1 win away at Köln, must avoid a repeat of their 0‑2 loss at home to Mainz as they look to progress.

Robbo's Verdict

Solid
SSV Jeddeloh to win Won Slight lean Solid · Home upset

With a higher expected‑goals figure and the model’s top win probability of 42.5%, Jeddeloh are the most likely side to take all three points in this tie.

Show the maths
The model compares the two teams’ expected‑goals values: Jeddeloh at 1.35 versus Heidenheim at 1.1. That 0.25 advantage translates into the highest win probability in the matrix, giving Jeddeloh a 42.5% chance to win. Heidenheim’s lower away expected‑goals and higher goals‑against rate reduce their win chance to 30.5%, while the draw sits at 27.1%.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — No (one side kept off the scoresheet) Lost 50.6% model probability

With SSV Jeddeloh averaging 1.35 expected goals and 1. FC Heidenheim averaging 1.1, the model gives a 50.6% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 49.4% it gives to both teams scoring.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (SSV Jeddeloh 1.35, 1. FC Heidenheim 1.1) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 49.4% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 50.6% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Under 2.5 Goals Lost 55.7% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.5 (SSV Jeddeloh 1.35 + 1. FC Heidenheim 1.1) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 55.7% chance against 44.3% for Over.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (SSV Jeddeloh 1.35 + 1. FC Heidenheim 1.1 = 2.5 combined): 44.3% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 55.7% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has SSV Jeddeloh at 42.5%, the draw at 27.1%, and 1. FC Heidenheim at 30.5% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.8% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
