Freiburg vs Wolfsburg Prediction & Betting tips
SC Freiburg crosses the swords with VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday afternoon at its own Schwarzwald Stadium. What can we expect from this subtop duel?
SC Freiburg:
SC Freiburg is surprisingly in sixth place after thirteen games. Last week was lost for the third time this season. Against leader Borussia Mönchengladbach, Die Breisgauer suffered a 4-2 defeat. Defensively, Freiburg made too many mistakes. For example, goalkeeper Mark Flekken, who retained his base place despite the return of first goalkeeper Alexander Schwolow, went wrong with Gladbach’s opening goal.
“We had good moments in the match against Gladbach,” Freiburg coach Christian Streich looked back on the previous match this week. “We had chances for the 3-3, but soberly, we have deservedly lost.” Streich and his team can rely on a great home balance this season. For their own audience, the South Germans only lost this competition once. Schwolow would probably be back in the starting line-up on Saturday, but the first goalkeeper was again slightly injured. Flekken will probably get a new chance under the bar.
VfL Wolfsburg:
VfL Wolfsburg also went down in the previous round. Die Wölfe played a home game against wobbling Werder Bremen. Wolfsburg could not take advantage of the weak form of the visitors. There was a parallel match, which was decided in favor of Bremen in the final phase. Wolfsburg lost somewhat unfortunate with 2-3, in a game in which Wout Weghorst managed to score again. The Dutchman is now on seven league goals.
“Our performance is on the rise again, despite the disappointing defeat in the last game,” coach Oliver Glasner said at the press conference on Thursday. “At least it’s good that the team is fit.” Wolfsburg is in the middle of a busy schedule, with a European League game against AS Saint-Etienne on Thursday. Wolfsburg, however, has already been placed for the next round, so Glasner can give players peace in that game. That is not a superfluous luxury, because two more duels are scheduled in the following week. In the Bundesliga there is also a mid-week match day.
