Freiburg come into the match on the back of a narrow 2-1 loss at defending champions Bayern Munich prior to the international break. Freiburg found themselves 2-0 down after 75 minutes but managed to score a consolation goal at the end of the game. That was the first defeat for Freiburg in 13 competitive matches.
Freiburg have made a strong start to the 2021/22 Bundesliga season and they are undefeated in 10 of their 11 league fixtures. Home form shows Freiburg have won 3 and drawn 2 of their 5 Bundesliga games at the Schwarzwald-Stadion this season, beating Borussia Dortmund, Augsburg, and Greuther Fürth.
Trends show Freiburg have managed to score 1 or more goals in their last 9 home matches in the Bundesliga. They have scored 2 or more goals in 4 of their last 6 home league games and both teams have found the back of the net in 6 of their last 7 Bundesliga matches on home soil.
Eintracht Frankfurt travel to Freiburg having picked up maximum points in a 2-1 win at Greuther Fürth last time out.
That result means Eintracht Frankfurt are undefeated in their last 3 matches in all competitions, including a victory over Olympiakos away from home in the Europa League and a 1-1 draw at home against RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga.
In fact, Eintracht Frankfurt have lost only one of their last 5 matches in all competitions and just 2 of their 14 most recent games. However, wins have not been easy to come by away from home for Eintracht Frankfurt and they have recorded only 2 victories from their last 9 away trips in the Bundesliga.
Trends show Eintracht Frankfurt have allowed at least one goal in each of their last 15 away Bundesliga games. Despite struggling defensively, they have managed to score goals and Eintracht Frankfurt have found the back of the net in 7 of their last 8 away Bundesliga matches.
Looking ahead to the team news and Freiburg have several players unavailable due to injury, including Kimberly Ezekwem, Kevin Schade, Nico Schlotterbeck, Nils Petersen, Roland Sallai, and Jonathan Schmid.
Eintracht Frankfurt travel without the injured duo of Gonçalo Paciência and Christopher Lenz.
Freiburg will be keen to continue their great start to the season and should have enough to take maximum points from this game. Eintracht Frankfurt can score goals away from home but they struggle to keep out the opposition and Freiburg should get the goals they need to win, with both teams scoring.
