Heidenheim (dpa / lsw) - Coach Frank Schmidt from 1. FC Heidenheim hopes that his team will perform in the southwest duel at Karlsruher SC like they have in the past few weeks. "We want to set accents with our intensity," said the coach of the Swabian second division soccer team one day before the game in Karlsruhe on Saturday (1 p.m. / Sky).
Heidenheim got 14 points from the first seven games and are in the top group. "We're well-rehearsed and things are working together. We defend well, it's difficult to score against us and we're able to score late ourselves. With every success, our chests get bigger," said Schmidt. Not much will change in terms of personnel, emphasized the 48-year-old. Substitute goalkeeper Vitus Eicher is fit again after a muscle fiber tear.
