Freiburg have had a rough run lately, losing most of their recent games, though they did manage a draw and one win along the way. Leipzig are in even worse shape — they have lost every one of their last five matches, several of them heavily. When these two sides have met in recent seasons, Leipzig have usually come out on top and several of those games were high-scoring, so goals have tended to flow in this fixture.

Both teams are struggling, so this looks like a close contest rather than a one-sided affair. Given the history between them and Freiburg's slightly steadier recent form, a narrow Freiburg win is the most likely outcome, though a draw is also quite possible.
