On Sunday afternoon, Freiburg and Bayer Leverkusen go head-to-head at the Schwarzwald-Stadion, with the home team looking to pick up just their second Bundesliga win of the season.
Freiburg have failed to win in their last four league matches since winning at new boys Stuttgart on gameweek one.
Since the win, the team from the black forest have failed to win in the Bundesliga, picking up three draws and suffering one defeat. Last time out, Christian Streich’s team drew 1-1 with Union Berlin in the German capital. The game was another relatively low-scoring encounter for the home team, as three of their last four league matches have now produced under 2.5 goals.
Freiburg are unbeaten in their last five home games in the Bundesliga but have drawn their last two league games against Wolfsburg and Werder Bremen. The home side’s recent league games on home soil have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven outings.
Bayer Leverkusen seems to have hit form in recent games, recording back-to-back wins over Mainz and Augsburg. The wins mean that the visitors are now six Bundesliga games unbeaten since last season.
The win last time out against Augsburg ended a run of low-scoring games in the German top-flight for Bayer, as their previous six league matches had all produced under 2.5 goals.
Although Peter Bosz’s team do not have a great recent away record in the Bundesliga, the visitors have lost just once in their last ten away games in the German top-flight.
Like their recent league games in general, Bayer’s away matches have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in their previous six games.
Forebet predicts that this game will be a relatively close encounter, ending in a low-scoring draw.
