Full-time: Heidenheim 1-2 Leverkusen

That’s a big win for Alonso’s Leverkusen. Heidenheim have been a stumbling block for many teams this season, but the league leaders have found a way past thanks to goals from Frimpong and Adli, making Kleindienst’s header just a consolation. The Werkself are now eight points clear at the top before Bayern go to Bochum on Sunday and have now equalled the Munich club’s record for a German team of 32 competitive fixtures unbeaten. Is this their year?!

Adli doubles lead!

Leverkusen finally have their second and it's all about the pass from Wirtz. Acres of space in the centre, perfectly into the run of Adli, who rounds Müller and slots home to put the league leaders well in command.

Wirtz off the bar!

So close to 2-0! Slick play inside the Heidenheim box, Wirtz with time and space right of goal. He strikes it really well but can only watch the ball cannon back off the crossbar with Müller well beaten.
76'

Double change

The hosts make a double switch with some fresh legs out wide.
74'

Straight swap

Alonso makes his first change with Iglesias on for Schick at centre-forward.

Gimber!

The hosts are shifting up a gear now and Gimber unleashes a powerful shot from 18 yards. It forces Hrádecký into another stop low to his right.
66'

Good defending

Hincapie up against the burly Kleindienst does very well to get his head to a cross in the six-yard box before the Heidenheim striker.
64'

Impenetrable

We've now passed six hours since Leverkusen last conceded a goal.
61'

Flashed wide

Frimpong fancies settling this game all on his own. Quick feet to dart down the outside inside the box and he flashes a shot a matter of inches wide of the far post on the angle.
58'

Dovedan deflection

Wayward clearance from Frimpong goes straight to Dovedan, he cuts onto his left foot and shoots. It takes a deflection of Tah, but Hrádecký is still able to get his dive right and hold.

An improvement

The reverse fixture in Leverkusen ended with 20-1 for shots in favour of the hosts. Heidenheim have doubled their tally already here.

Half-time: Heidenheim 0-1 Leverkusen

A sucker punch to Heidenheim, who had done very well to hold Heidenheim at bay for pretty much all of that half. But Leverkusen have developed a habit of scoring in added time and have now snatched the lead at the Voith-Arena. They're going eight points clear as it stands!

Frimpong on the stroke of half-time!

Wirtz with space to turn in the centre, plays it out to Adli on the left. He cuts back low, all the way across to the far post, where Frimpong sweeps home - with a slight deflection - with the last kick of the half.

Lovely from Wirtz

He skips past a number of challenges on the left, twists this way and that before trying to cut it back. Blocked for a corner. Adli goes down in the box at the same time but nothing's given.

No way through

Schick shows no ill effects from that earlier challenge and tries to drive between two defenders, but Mainka and Föhrenbach manage to muscle him off the ball.

Schick down

The big Czech striker, who's only just back from over a year out, goes down after a knock to his ankle. He looks fine to continue after some quick treatment.

Such depth in this Leverkusen team, with Odilon Kossounou back following his Africa Cup of Nations win with Ivory Coast, and only Arthur and Victor Boniface currently missing through injury.

Alonso milestone

This game marks exactly 500 days since Alonso took over at Leverkusen. The team have earned 100 points from his 47 Bundesliga matches at the helm. Only Pep Guardiola, Hansi Flick and Carlo Ancelotti have a better points-per-game ratio in the Bundesliga.

Watch: The secrets to Leverkusen's success

Another reminder that Leverkusen are yet to taste defeat in their 31 competitive fixtures so far this season. It's already a German record for a single campaign, but 32 would equal the all-time best run for consecutive unbeaten games by a German club, set by Hansi Flick's Bayern across 2019/20 and 2020/21.

Schmidt's view on Leverkusen

"Leverkusen's quality was clear to see against Bayern. We're welcoming a team that's still unbeaten. They're very solid in defence. Their attacking play is variable. We've prepared for variable positional play and their high tempo. We've shown often enough this season that we can be a stumbling block for supposed favourites. I'm expecting every one of us to go to the limit and believe in an upset."

Alonso's view on Heidenheim

"It's one of the toughest away games of the season. It's always hard to play there. They absolutely deserve their position in the table. They were top at set pieces [in the 2-1 win against Werder Bremen] and have super team spirit. It all makes Heidenheim very dangerous."

Unbeaten streaks on the line

Heidenheim are currently eight without defeat in the Bundesliga. The only team to earn more points over the same number of games, and in fact the only team on a longer unbeaten run, are Leverkusen. Bayer are yet to lose in any competitive fixture this season. That run of 31 games now has them on the brink of equalling the record for longest undefeated streak by a German club. That was set at 32 by Hansi Flick's treble-winning Bayern team across 2019 and 2020.
