Freiburg II form and stats

There's been little loot from Freiburg II's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 10 away games in the 3. Liga. Freiburg II only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws. Recent form does not give Freiburg much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Borussia Dortmund II will be a tough nut to crack.

Home advantage was not enough for Freiburg II in their previous game, as they lost their 3. Liga-match, hosting Magdeburg, 2-3.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Wehen Wiesbaden wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

We have checked recent matches where Freiburg II have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those twelve games were three victories, three draws and six defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Freiburg II are hosting Turkgucu-Ataspor in the 3. Liga only four days away.

Freiburg II are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 10 away games. Freiburg II struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 18 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Freiburg II - Borussia 2-5 was the product when these two contenders previously met, also in this season.
