SC Freiburg vs RB Leipzig - 16/10/2021

15/10/21 2814

On Saturday afternoon, in-form Freiburg host RB Leipzig at the Mage Solar Stadion, as the home team look to continue their stellar start to the Bundesliga campaign.

Freiburg are sitting pretty in fourth place in the German top-flight table after an unbeaten start to the new Bundesliga campaign.

A 2-1 win at Hertha Berlin last time out means that Christian Streich’s team has now recorded back-to-back league wins, while also scoring at least twice in four of their last six league matches.

At the other end of the pitch, a record of one goal conceded in three league outings is not a terrible one.

This game will be Freiburg’s first competitive outing at their new home. Streich’s team tend to have a strong home record and are currently seven home matches unbeaten in the Bundesliga.

The home team has also been prolific on home soil in the German top-flight, having scored at least two goals in five of their last seven home games.

RB Leipzig have experienced a mixed start to the new Bundesliga campaign.

However, a 3-0 win over Bochum last time out means that Die Roten Bullen are unbeaten in three league games, having recorded two straight league wins. Jesse Marsch’s team have found their shooting boots of late, scoring nine goals in those two straight league wins.

French attacking midfielder Christopher Nkunku has been in hot scoring form in recent games, as the former PSG star has scored four goals in his last two Bundesliga appearances for Leipzig. The 23-year-old is the visitor's top goalscorers in the German top-flight this season due to that recent goalscoring form.

Leipzig have a woeful recent away record in the Bundesliga, having failed to win in six league matches on their travels dating back to last season.

Forebet predicts Freiburg’s stellar run of form will continue with the home team recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
