Heidenheim have never scored against RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. But there has been one win against the Saxons under coach Schmidt.

Leipzig (dpa) -

Leipzig want to extend their record

RB Leipzig also want to extend their club record of 16 unbeaten Bundesliga games across the season at 1. FC Heidenheim. After all, RB have the best defense in the league this Sunday (3.30 pm/DAZN) in the Voith-Arena. RB have conceded just two goals after five matchdays.

Only Bayern and RB still without a defeat

Even though Leipzig, like German record champions FC Bayern, suffered a defeat in the Champions League, they still have a clean sheet in the league. And RB have won both first division duels with Heidenheim 2:1 so far. The only win for Frank Schmidt's team so far came in 2015 in the 2nd division with a 1-0 home win. Yussuf Poulsen and Lukas Klostermann were still playing alongside Joshua Kimmich at the time.

Heidenheim's best sprinter

FCH new signing Sirlord Conteh is Heidenheim's new sprint star. The Hamburg-born midfielder with Ghanaian roots tops the list with 36.67 km/h. Faster than Leipzig's Lois Openda (35.30 km/h) and David Raum (35.25 km/h).

RB one more game without a goal

The East Württemberg side already have three games without a goal after five matchdays with goalkeeper Kevin Müller - the second-best league record. Only the Saxons are better. Goalkeeper Peter Gulasci and his defense have only conceded two goals and recorded four clean sheets.

Coach Schmidt

FCH coach Frank Schmidt took over the team in the 5th division in 2007 and led them all the way to the Bundesliga. After the second matchday of this season, Heidenheim were even top of the table ahead of Bayern and Leipzig, who were level on points.
