Freiburg – Wolfsburg : Preview & Prediction
For the 26th day of the Bundesliga, Freiburg hosts Wolfsburg. The home side’s momentum is very good with a 6th place and only 2 points behind the top 4. The Black Forest club has just made it five games without a single defeat. Indeed, the Freiburg players drew against Mainz (1-1) before beating Augsburg (1-2) and then Hertha Berin (3-0). Last week, this team beat Bochum (1-2 ap) to qualify for the semi-finals of the German Cup and drew at RB Leipzig (1-1) to remain in the top 6 but also in contact with the top 4.
Wolfsburg have been doing better in recent weeks. The Wolves are now in 12th place in the standings, eight points clear of the relegation zone. After a chaotic December and January, this team has finally recovered with a series of positive results. After their frustrating defeat against Hoffenheim (1-2), Wolfsburg’s players went on to draw at Gladbach (2-2) before beating Union Berlin (1-0) last weekend. They are not yet assured of a place in the top flight, but they are well on their way to achieving that goal.
Freiburg won the first leg 0-2.
In the last 5 meetings, 3 have seen less than 2.5 goals in the game.
The visitors have the 3rd worst defence in the league with only 27 goals scored.
The home side have the best defence in the league with 27 goals conceded.
Freiburg must not lose ground in the race for Europe, while Wolfsburg must confirm their survival quickly.
In this match, we should see a very competitive but close game between two teams that must not lose. On one side, Freiburg is only 2 points behind the top 4. On the other hand, Wolfsburg is 8 points ahead of the relegation zone and needs to keep collecting points to stay in the top flight. Considering the style of play of these two teams with a well-oiled Freiburg defence and a weak Wolfsburg attack we should see few goals. That’s why we expect less than 2.5 goals to be scored.
