Holstein Kiel vs Freiburg Prediction & Betting tips
During the week the second round of the DFB-Pokal will take place. A grueling journey is the SC Freiburg imminent, which must first compete on Tuesday in more than 850 km away Kiel and on the weekend at Bayern Munich. There is no clear favorite in this cup game, because Holstein Kiel is one of the more ambitious second division, which just missed the way in the last season just barely the rise in the Bundesliga. The Breisgauer, however, narrowly escaped the opposite path, but have been able to withdraw this much of the relegation battle in the current season so far.
In the first round of the DFB Cup, the team of Christian Streich had already big problems against third division Energie Cottbus and missed only on penalties the embarrassment. The storks, however, handed the normal time against TSV 1860 Munich, even if they were struggling for a long time and managed the deserved decision to 3-1 victory until the final stage.
Kiel:
Holstein Kiel has not yet been able to build on its strong performances from last year and is in eighth place after the eleventh matchday with a record of four wins, four draws and three defeats, a goal difference of 16:15 and 16 points , While it has been running out of town lately, the storks in the home-grown Holstein stadium are very strong. Of the last five games in the far north, none was lost. While against SV Darmstadt (4: 2) and 1 FC Magdeburg (2: 1) two wins were retracted, it was enough against the 1 FC Heidenheim (1: 1) and VfL Bochum (2: 2) to two Draw.
On the penultimate weekend was then with the 1st FC Cologne one of the highly favored promotion candidates in Kiel and the team of chief coach Tim Walter bravely opposed. After a temporary backlog Kiel proved moral and rewarded for a committed performance with the equalizer to 1-1 final score. Last weekend, the storks went to the North Derby in St. Pauli, where it was a very lucky 1-0 success. The fact that Kiel does not lose to Freiburg is, according to the odds, not unlikely.
Freiburg:
For Freiburg conditions the start of the season can certainly be described as successful. After the ninth matchday, the team of head coach Christian Streich is in eleventh place with a balanced record of three wins, three draws and three defeats, a slightly negative goal ratio of 13:15 and 12 points. Especially the start of the season went completely wrong with two defeats. Since then, however, the Breisgauer seem to catch more and more. Apart from the rough 1: 4-Klatsche at the FC Augsburg, which preceded two wins against the VfL Wolfsburg (3: 1) and the FC Schalke 04 (1: 0), remained the Freiburg last without defeat.
Against Bayer Leverkusen, who are currently not really counted among the top teams in the Bundesliga, then it was enough only to a goalless draw, before Hertha BSC (1-1) followed another important and hard-fought point. Last weekend, the Sportclub against Borussia Mönchengladbach managed a quite unexpected as well as surprisingly clear 3-1 victory, which the prank team is in the fight for relegation but very good face.
