In the match of the eighth round of the Bundesliga, Freiburg will host Mainz on its field.
"Freiburg"Christian Streich's team, after a strong start in the German championship, began to "slip" a little and eventually drew twice in a row.
In the last round, Freiburg drew with Hoffenheim on the road. The meeting turned out to be far from the worst, but at the same time the teams played against each other with a score of 0:0.
As a result, "Freiburg" with 14 points is located on the third line in the standings.
MainzBo Svensson's team, in turn, is now in a rather weak form and holds matches "hard".
In the last round, before the pause for the matches of the national teams, Mainz almost lost to Hertha Berlin on its own field. At the same time, Hertha played exclusively from defense, but led the score from the 30th minute of the meeting. Mainz tried to attack quite a lot, but there were big problems with scoring chances, and even more so with getting on target. As a result, "carnivals" and "Hertha" only hit the opponent's goal twice during the entire match. Mainz was able to pull out the game only at 90 + 4 minutes thanks to an accurate strike by Anthony Kasi.
Also, Mainz held a friendly match against Karlsruhe just during the break for the national teams' matches. Of course, there was no need to talk about the optimal composition in this meeting, as a result, Bo Svensson's team suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 2:5. At the same time, the carnivals lost the first half with a score of 1:4. Delan Burgzorg (30th minute) and Dennis Kaigin (90th minute) were in the Mainz team in this meeting.
After the last seven rounds in the Bundesliga, Mainz has 11 points to its credit, which allows the team to safely go in the standings.
Mainz and Freiburg last played against each other on February 12 as part of the 22nd round of the German Championship. Then the teams on the field of "Freiburg" played each other in a draw with a score of 1:1.
ForecastIn this match, Freiburg needs to try to score three points with the middle of the standings if Christian Streich's team plans to maintain its leading positions in a tight schedule.
And at home, it will still be a little easier for Freiburg, and therefore we suggest that you put on the wards of Streich.
