With two wins in a row under his belt, Christian Streich takes his Freiburg team into this game full of confidence, and hopeful of another successive victory.

Also, Freiburg keep finding ways to win, having secured five victories in their last eight matches is astonishing this season. They currently stand fifth in the League, with 51 points for a total of 14 wins, 7 losses and 9 draws having won 14 games, drawn nine meetings, and lost seven fixtures.

Good Attacking Performance

Freiburg will be pleased to have a good goal scoring record so far this season (49). This has been largely down to the key attacking players: Nils Petersen (4), Vincenzo Grifo (4), and Nico Schlotterbeck (2). Freiburg have conceded 34 goals.

Christian Streich could be missing up to two of their players through injury or illness for the game on Saturday.

B Mönchengladbach have 37 points to their name, going into this tie

Having lost to FC Köln in their last game, Adi Hutter’s men must reset and try to gain a positive result in this match.

Also, Adi Hutter knows that a run of nine losses in 18 meetings for his Gladbach side, is going to be a tough run of form to change. However that is exactly what he must try to deliver. With 37 points (10W, 13L and 7D), they are established in eleventh position in the League having won 10 matches, drawn seven fixtures, and lost 13 meetings.

Gladbach have had a disappointing run of performances on the road, having won four matches, drawn three games, and lost eight meetings of their 15 League matches on the road this season.

Victory for B Mönchengladbach would take their points tally to 40 so far this season.

Injury and illness have depleted Adi Hutter’s Gladbach and they will likely be missing one key personnel for Saturday’s match.
