Bayer Leverkusen vs Freiburg Prediction: Leverkusen's offensive firepower meet Freiburg's defensive unit

Bayer Leverkusen vs Freiburg: Prediction for the Match on October 26, 2025

At the BayArena on 26th October 2025 at 17:30 (GMT+3), Leverkusen will aim to assert dominance early in the game while Freiburg travel aware that goal-scoring opportunities will be rare. 

Leverkusen are looking to build on their strong offensive displays and maintain pressure at the top end of the table, whereas Freiburg will hope to rely on structure, counter-attacks and interruptions of Leverkusen’s rhythm. Leverkusen generally hold the edge in the recent meeting but Freiburg have shown they can make life uncomfortable. A high-intensity game with goals seems very likely.

Bayer Leverkusen: Forms and Statistics

Leverkusen have been in good shape offensively this season. Over their recent home matches, they have averaged about 2.0 goals per game, and in their last six games overall, they recorded three wins and three draws, remaining unbeaten. 

Against Freiburg, Leverkusen have won more than half of the meetings (about 52% of the last 31 encounters) with a strong goal difference. But home matches especially lean in their favour as Leverkusen’s attacking output and home support boost them. However, while the attack is strong, their defence is not impregnable, as recent games show that they concede and allow opponents chances.

Freiburg: Forms and Statistics

Freiburg’s season has been more modest, with an average of around 1.5 goals per game in their recent six matches. They have drawn more than they have lost recently, showing a degree of consistency but not prolific winning form. Their away performances are solid but lack the attacking output to dominate games.

Defensively, Freiburg are reasonably organised as they often concede fewer goals than weaker teams, but when up against a high-quality opponent like Leverkusen, their defensive structure will be put under significant pressure.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Freiburg: Prediction for the Match on October 26, 2025

Leverkusen dominate home encounters and create many chances, while Freiburg rely on being tight, but may struggle to keep a clean sheet. Both teams have scored in many of the recent meetings, making BTTS a realistic possibility. Matches between the two sides average around 2.8 goals per game. 

We expect Leverkusen to take the initiative and press for control, while Freiburg will try to absorb pressure and look for moments on the break. The balance and home margin lean toward Leverkusen, but Freiburg’s resilience means they will likely score. We anticipate a 3-1 win for  scoreline of Bayer Leverkusen.
