Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Freiburg in 8th and Schalke 04 in 11th place.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Freiburg can neither be promoted or relegated from Bundesliga. Schalke is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Freiburg form and stats

8 victories, 2 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Freiburg have to build on here at Schwarzwald-Stadion in the Bundesliga. Two home wins in a row for Freiburg bring valid hopes of a third.

Freiburg are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Bayern München. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Hertha BSC in a game that was won 2-1.

Alexander Schwolow had a busy but productive day in the Bayern München match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Freiburg handle that role? We have found eight games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are two wins, two draws and four defeats.

Schalke 04 form and stats

4 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses. That’s the product of Schalke 04 playing as the away team in the Bundesliga this season. Schalke are desperate to end a 15-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Borussia M'gladbach fixture. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

The manager D. Wagner was unhappy after their last game, a Bundesliga match played at their home ground VELTINS-Arena. Schalke suffered a 1-4 loss to Wolfsburg (placed 6th). Prior to that match, the Schalke 04 manager D. Wagner faced defeat when travelling to Eintracht Frankfurt and losing 1-2.

Schalke are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, three draws and three defeats. From a total of six matches.

Schalke 04 are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 16 games (in the league). Schalke struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 27 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Freiburg and Schalke 04 have met before this season: Schalke 04 - Freiburg 2-2. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Freiburg won three games, four matches ended with a draw and Schalke 04 has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / nine
