Paderborn form and stats

There’s a good atmosphere here at Benteler-Arena after three straight home wins.

Paderborn lost their last game at Bayer Leverkusen after a 2-3 scoreline. Before that, Paderborn played out a DFB Pokal draw 3-3 when visiting Rödinghausen.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Paderborn have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won 1 Drawn 0 Lost 1.

Last season, Paderborn's league statistics were 16 wins, 9 draws and 9 losses, resulting in a 2nd position in the 2. Bundesliga. Over these 34 matches they scored 76 goals and conceded 50. Playing at home last season Paderborn managed 10-6-1 (win-draw-lost) with 50 goals and 23 conceded.

Freiburg form and stats

The supporters enjoyed Freiburg's previous game versus Mainz 05, a Bundesliga 3-0 win played at home. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Magdeburg at their stadium, the result 1-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Freiburg playing away and similar expectations, we found three relevant matches. Results were 1 Freiburg win, 1 draw and 1 defeat.

Let's have a look at how Freiburg performed last season in the Bundesliga: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 8 victories, 12 draws and 14 defeats. In total they scored 46 and conceded 61 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 5 and lost 10 with 14/34 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head
