Despite Freiburg having a mixed season in the Bundesliga, the recent form of the team has put them firmly in place to push for even Champions League football. One thing that has been impressive for Leipzig is the team's ability to grind out results even in away games, as shown in the hard-fought 2-1 victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach. It is their home games that have let them down, but they have shown that they can be clinical in front of goal.
Freiburg has accrued just three points from their last three games played, meaning Freiburg is in 5th place with 45 points, just three behind Leipzig in the last Champions League spot. To boast their chances of qualifying for the Champions League, Freiburg has to be solid defensively and balance their midfield so better shield is provided the defence.
Freiburg: Lineup
Freiburg may play a 4-2-3-1 formation, considering player availability and recent success with the formation. For a solid defensive play and much shield from the midfield, this formation has better suited Freiburg than the 4-3-3. The coach is expected to select a dynamic and high-pressing team with Doam and Höler providing support to Chukw.
Although Freiburg is impressive in front of the goal, the team is without several key players, especially in attack and goalkeeping. With all these key players unavailable, the team remains competitive in achieving its objectives.
🔖 SC Freiburg starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Müll – Gü, Lien, Maximilian, Kübler – Maximilian – Gri, Holer, Doan – Chukw
⛔️ Out:J. Adamu (suspension), E. Dinkçi, N. Atubolu, D. Kyereh, B. Ogbus (all injured)
👤Head coach: Christian Streich

Bayer Leverkusen: form and statistics
Die Werkself head into the game in good form, although the team lost in a bad manner when playing against Werder Bremen. Bayer Leverkusen is still considered a great team in Germany and will be hoping to carry that into a match with a lesser-known team in the Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen averages 2.5 goals per game and also concedes 0.8 goals when considering the last six games played. A good sign for Leverkusen is the fact that the team has been ruthless, especially when playing away from home.
It is largely thanks to the brilliance of Xabi Alonso that Leverkusen have found a style of play that they can identify with. The style typically combines possession-based with very quick transitions while having a solid defence. The midfield mostly controls the game and feeds the attack line. It seems Leverkusen might not be able to usurp Bayern Munich but they will surely give it a try.
Bayer Leverkusen: Lineup
Bayer Leverkusen may not approach this game high on confidence despite a few absences that could potentially impact the squad depth and tactical flexibility. Mario Hermoso, who is a key defensive signing, is missing through injury as well as Martin Terrier and Jeanuel Belocian. Despite the unavailability of these three players, the core of the first team is available and ready to go, and this will be great news for Xavi Alonso as he will have enough quality players on the field.
Xavi Alonso will maintain his fluid 3-5-2 formation that helps the team be fluid and press high up the pitch. With Schick and Boniface available, the attack will be fluid. Leverkusen will control the game with this formation.
🔖 Bayer Leverkusen predicted lineup (3-5-2)
Hrádecký – Tah, Tapsoba, Hincapié – Frimpong, Palacios, Xhaka, Grimaldo, Garcia – Tella, Schick
⛔️ Out: Mario Hermoso, Martin Terrier, Jeanuel Belocian (all injured)
👤 Head coach: Xabi Alonso
