Freiburg, Recent FormFreiburg had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 0-0 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach. They achieved 47% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Borussia Mönchengladbach's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 9 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 8, and leading to valuable points being dropped. The defensive quality of his current squad will be troubling Christian Streich of late, his defence having only notched up 1 clean sheet from their last 6 home games. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 10 out of 11 home games.
They have been performing well at Europa-Park Stadion recently and are unbeaten in their last 10 home games.
When it comes to home matches at Europa-Park Stadion, Vincenzo Grifo will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Freiburg in their last 6 home games.
1899 Hoffenheim, Recent FormThe 1899 Hoffenheim squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Mainz 05, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with a 53% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Mainz 05, who managed 15 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
They have bagged 4 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 15 times in that period. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games.
Serious concerns will be mounting for Hoffenheim, having gone without a win in their last 13 league games and lost the last 6 in a row.
Christoph Baumgartner will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Freiburg in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for 1899 Hoffenheim.
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
The Hoffenheim defence has struggled at Europa-Park Stadion, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 9 visits.
Hoffenheim player Andrej Kramarić will be looking to cause Freiburg some problems having scored 3 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Europa-Park Stadion.
Freiburg manager Christian Streich has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Ritsu Dōan (Illness), Daniel-Kofi Kyereh (Cruciate ligament) and Roland Sallai (Eye) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pellegrino Matarazzo has a number of injury concerns in his Hoffenheim squad to contend with: José Angeliño (Hip), Ihlas Bebou (Knee), Tom Bischof (Sprained ankle), Jacob Bruun Larsen (Groin), Justin Che (Knee), Grischa Prömel (Broken ankle) and Angelo Stiller (Knock)
