Freiburg vs Werder Bremen Preview and Team News
Freiburg Team News
Freiburg’s home game against Werder Bremen will have serious repercussions if they don’t win all three points. Currently ranked fifth in the league table, the hosts have an excellent chance of pushing forward and challenging for the top berth if other results go their way.
However, for that to happen, Freiburg need to focus on their attacking options and not allow their wingers to lose their way in the final third. It goes without saying that their finishing can be a lot better. If this gets taken care of, they’ll be a threat to their opponents, and it’ll help their position in the table.
The absence of Kyereh, Florent Muslija, Lukas Kubler, and Manuel Gulde means other reserves will get their opportunities. While this could break Freiburg’s usual shape, it’ll give their youngsters the opportunity to perform at the top level.
Vincenzo Grifo has created the most big chances for his steam (11), and the visiting defenders will mark his movements closely.
Freiburg predicted lineup vs Werder Bremen (4-2-3-1): Atubolu; Sildillia, Ginter, Lienhart, Gunter; Eggestein, Hofler; Doan, Rohl, Grifo; Holer.
Werder Bremen Team News
Jens Stage, Keke Topp, and Marco Friedl are among the three injured players for Werder Bremen in this game, but the visitors will not take Freiburg lightly at all.
They’re currently ranked in the tenth position, but recent losses to Hoffeheim (1-3) and Bayern Munich (0-3) will provide them with the wake-up call they need to improve their performance.
Recently, Bremen have been horrendous in their defence, conceding 10 goals in their last five outings. They desperately need to pull their socks up. One way is to focus on marking their opponents tightly and not allowing them to roam freely into the final third.
The space that Freiburg’s attackers like to create can be cut in half if Bremen follow the high-line philosophy well. They’ll also need to allocate a zone to each of their defenders and defensive midfielders.
Oliver Burke has the most shots on target per match for Werder Bremen (1.6) and will, naturally, be a significant threat up front.
Werder Bremen predicted lineup vs Freiburg (3-5-2): Zetterer; Köhn, Jung, Veljković; Pieper, Weiser, Grüll, Lynen, Burke; Ducksch, Njinmah.

- Pick: Freiburg to win or draw
- Odds: 1.38 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Freiburg vs Werder Bremen
Freiburg have an advantage over their opponents in this encounter, and we expect them to either win or draw. There have been a total of 28 games recorded between these two teams in the past, out of which the hosts have either won or tied 16.
This means they’ll be highly favoured to do so again on Friday. At home, and in this competition – the Bundesliga – Freiburg have been victorious or drawn seven out of the 12 matches played against Werder Bremen.
They’ve also beaten or equalised against the guests in five out of the previous six events against them.
Freiburg vs Werder Bremen Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 2 goals
- Odds: 1.36 (22Bet)
A total of over two goals is anticipated in this game, with Freiburg contributing to most of it. We saw this happen in two out of the last four matches played between these clubs, and hence, we have a strong inkling of it taking place here, too.
While Freiburg have seen a total of over 2 goals in two of their latest five fixtures, Bremen have seen the same in three out of their previous four encounters.
