Freiburg v Nantes is a match for the third day of the Europa League group stage: odds, where to watch it on TV and streaming
FREIBURG – NANTES | Thursday, 21:00
Six points in the league table, unbeaten since 12 August. In short, Freiburg’s season is off to a great start and does not seem to want to stop in any way. The German troop leads the Europa League group G with full points and hosts a Nantes side that definitely needs points to stay in the running. Difficult, of course, for the French outfit to score full points. And even coming away with a draw at the moment seems an almost unattainable feat, especially for what the guests are currently experiencing. Nantes haven’t won for four games in a row, and last weekend in Ligue 1 they even lost their pens in no uncertain terms against Monaco.
In contrast, moreover, to Freiburg’s performance at home. Three wins and a draw in their last four outings at home, and in the Europa League Qarabag were sent home without points. In short, the Streich-coached line-up appears to be firm favourites and may even be able to secure qualification well in advance. No, it wouldn’t be the final word, but heading into the halfway point with a full scoreline would certainly tip the balance of the group’s fortunes.
The Prediction
According to what we have told you before, Freiburg are clear favourites. The Germans haven’t lost this season since August against Borussia Dortmund and especially at home they have an almost perfect record. In short, Nantes will have to look for points in the Europa League from their next match.
