Freiburg are currently seventh in the Bundesliga table, having gone seven games without defeat. However, the last three have been draws, which has seen the Bianconeri lose a little momentum. After the break, though, they are almost certain to return to winning ways.
All they need to do is not concede a goal against the team with the second-worst attack in the league. On paper, this seems fairly straightforward: Union Berlin has scored only 23 goals this season, one more than St. Pauli. There is little cause for complacency, though, because if you don’t score, you don’t win, and the table is there to remind the visitors, who are just above the relegation zone. So we can say that motivation will not make the difference in this case, as both sides have plenty of it. What will make the difference is the mental freedom of Freiburg, which was certainly not built to reach the Champions League next year, but which is proving with positive results that it can compete with the big teams.
And then there is also their home record: Freiburg have lost only once at home in their last 12 games, against Bayern Munich. Let’s say that’s acceptable. So it will be difficult to win on a pitch like that. Union Berlin certainly won’t be able to do it.
