Freiburg vs Bayern Munich: match preview
Freiburg have won their last two matches and are currently in the race for seventh place in the table. That position could be enough to secure European football, but they still have work to do to claim it. Freiburg have collected 37 points from 27 matches and sit eighth in the standings, just one point behind seventh place. They have also progressed to the Europa League quarter-finals, defeating Genk 5–2 on aggregate, and will next face Celta.
Bayern Munich are also preparing for their own European quarter-final ties in the UEFA Champions League, where they are set to face Real Madrid next week. For now, their focus remains on the Bundesliga, where things are going very well. Bayern currently top the table, having accumulated 70 points from 27 matches, holding a nine-point lead over second place. With seven rounds remaining, nothing is mathematically decided yet, but Bayern are clear favourites for the title. In addition, they possess both the best attack and the best defence in the league, which allows them to manage their focus ahead of the Champions League.
Probable line-ups
- Freiburg: Atubolu; Treu, Ginter, Ogbus, Makengo; Eggestein, Manzambi; Beste, Suzuki, Grifo; Matanovic
- Bayern Munich: Neuer; Stanisic, Upamecano, Tah, Laimer; Kimmich, Pavlovic; Olise, Karl, Diaz; Gnabry
Prediction
We are in for an intriguing encounter with a clear favourite who, in my view, should come out on top. Yes, Bayern have a clash with Real Madrid coming up, but Freiburg are also involved in European competition. Therefore, I suggest backing the Munich side to win.
