Competition: Germany Bundesliga
Competition: Sat 24.October
Match begins: 13:30 (UTC)
Venue: Stadion An der Alten Försterei (22012 seats)

The season is still fairly new and the Bundesliga table has to be read with caution. So far Union Berlin find themselves in 12th position and Freiburg are placed 11th.

Union Berlin and Freiburg should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Freiburg have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Union Berlin form and stats

Only two Bundesliga home games for Union Berlin so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.

An away draw last time out for Berlin, facing Schalke 04 in a game that ended 0-0. A 1-1 draw away before that, with Borussia M'gladbach the opponent.

This is expected to be a close game, with Union Berlin perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Union Berlin as a small favourite), we find eight games. Union Berlin has won two of these, drawn three and lost three.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Union Berlin at home in the league. 5 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Freiburg form and stats

Freiburg are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Bundesliga, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

Freiburg delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Werder Bremen (placed 7th) in their previous match; a Bundesliga game. A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Wolfsburg.

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 five relevant matches. Results were two Freiburg wins, one draw and two defeats.

It's early days yet, but Freiburg has scored 3 and conceded 6 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last five meetings): Berlin won three games, zero matches ended with a draw and Freiburg has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / one
