Freiburg Preview
In its most recent league match against Frankfurt, Freiburg awakened after a terrible performance on matchday 16 and earned a 1-1 draw against one of the teams favored to win the tournament. Although it was the visiting team who struck first, Matthias Ginter evened the match five minutes later and sent the Europa Park’s crowd into celebration.
The team coached by German Christian Streich is in sixth place in the Bundesliga with 31 points attained from 9 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. For this new Freiburg vs Augsburg clash, it is expected that Freiburg can get back to its winning ways and move closer to the top of the standings, as it is only five points behind the leader, Bayern.
Possible Freiburg lineup (4-2-3-1): Mark Flekken; Kiliann Sildillia, Matthias Ginter, Manuel Gulde, Christian Günter; Maximilian Eggestein, Nicolas Höfler; Ritsu Doan, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Jeong Woo-Yeong; Michael Gregoritsch.
Augsburg Preview
Augsburg currently occupies the 14th place in the Bundesliga standings. So far this season, Enrico Maaßen’s team has 5 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats.
In the last five matchdays, the Fuggerstädter team has only achieved one win, so it will surely come to this Freiburg vs Augsburg match looking to continue adding points to reach middle position in the standings.
In its last match against Gladbach, Augsburg won 1-0 and confirmed that it is on a good run. Its strikers have scored again, and Mërgim Berisha hopes to add more goals to his tally.

JefeBet Prediction
Considering their last results, we believe that the home team will be the one to win this Freiburg vs Augsburg match.
So far, the team has remained in the top six of the tournament and has been able to recover from several mishaps in the German competition. If Ginter is on top of his game, the team could cause Augsburg a big surprise at home.
Prediction: Freiburg win 1-0.
