• Eintracht Frankfurt vs Augsburg Prediction: Bundesliga Match Match on 29.04.2023

Bundesliga Preview

Freiburg could be on the verge of a historic finish in the Champions League spots this season. They currently sit fourth in the overall standings, and they have picked up victories in each of their previous two matches to move two points clear of RB Leipzig in the race for the top four. Freiburg could enhance their chances of a Champions League spot this weekend, as three points could take them above Union Berlin into third spot.

The German side appear to be getting stronger as the season progresses, as they picked up a well-deserved home win in their previous match by a 4-0 scoreline against Schalke. Michael Gregoritsch scored twice in that success, while further efforts were added by Lucas Holer and Matthias Ginter. In total, Freiburg registered 26 shots in that comprehensive win. 

FC Köln appear to be playing for very little in the closing weeks of the season, as they sit eleventh. They are already clear of relegation danger, while they are too far away from making a push for a European finish. They at least come into this match in fine recent form, as they have gone four without defeat, and have picked up wins in two of their last three. 

Köln produced a battling performance in their previous match, as they eased to a 3-1 success on the road against Hoffenheim. Florian Kainz, Davie Selke, and Jan Theilmann netted the goals in that success. 

FC Köln vs Freiburg Head to Head

Freiburg claimed victory in the previous meeting between the sides this season. That was their third win in five league matches against Köln, but their only win in three previous away matches was secured in May 2021. Köln won this exact fixture 1-0 last season, and that was their second win in three home matches against Freiburg. 

FC Köln vs Freiburg Prediction

Köln has been in fine form over recent weeks, but they have very little to play for in the Bundesliga. Freiburg is chasing a Champions League spot, and they boast an impressive head-to-head record against their rivals this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with a victory for the away side.
