Freiburg-Borussia Monchengladbach is a Bundesliga Week 6 match
FREIBURG – BORUSSIA MONCHENGLADBACH | Sunday 5:30pm
With a win, Streich’s home side could go it alone at the top of the Bundesliga standings by making the most of Bayern Munich’s home draw yesterday, when they were caught up by Stuttgart at the last second, with De Ligt’s error sending the visitors off from the eleven-metre line. It was a one-off opportunity for the hosts in a nutshell, even if the calendar holds a difficult encounter against a Borussia side who need points to redeem last week’s home defeat against Mainz.
Moreover, Freiburg also played in Europe this week: The victory against Qarabag seemed a foregone conclusion on the eve of the match and even came in the end, but the commitment was more difficult than expected. In short, in the physical aspect, the hosts might pay something. This is usually the case and it is also clear as a situation, which is why the possibility of a draw coming out of this match does not seem obvious. Also because the quality of the guests, who have an important squad, we are not going to discover now.
Hofmann’s exultation
The Prediction
A tie. Although Freiburg will obviously be looking for victory in every way in order to go it alone at the top of the Bundesliga standings. Difficult, of course, especially because of the qualities of the visiting team. A match that should also give at least one goal per team in the end.
