Here's our Freiburg vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction analysis: With the end of the German Bundesliga season in sight, Freiburg remain in the running for a Europa League place finish with only four points separating them from sixth-placed Wolfsburg. However, to have any chances of finishing among the ‘Big Six”, Streich’s side must improve performance levels. Showing glimpses of brilliance at times, Freiburg have struggled with consistency all season, failing to string up positive results on a regular. They managed to bag a single point on the last match-day as they failed to overpower a weak Eintracht Frankfurt side, even on home turf.

Bayer Leverkusen’s charge for a top-four finish remains up in the air, as they dropped out of the Champions League places after their shocking defeat to Wolfsburg in midweek. However, level on points with fourth-placed Monchengladbach, Leverkusen are still in with a shout for a spot amongst the league’s elite.

This Friday will see two wounded sides square off, looking to return to winning ways to book a spot in Europe come the end of the season. Hence, expect a thrilling game of football when Freiburg and Bayer Leverkusen lock horns at the Schwarzwald-Stadion on Friday evening.

SC Freiburg vs Bayer Leverkusen Team News

A whopping nine points ahead of Eintracht Frankfurt on the standings, SC Freiburg were scheduled to take on Die Adler – an easy chance to book all three points on the board. Headed into the game in high spirits, Streich’s side were dealt a huge blow as they failed to see of their bottom-half opposition.

An action-packed game, laden with gilt-edged chances as well as goals, both sides looked in attacking mode from kick-off. With both sides throwing men forward in search of a win, they ultimately had to settle for a point. Freiburg would have been particularly disappointed by the result.

Both set of players headed into the dressing room at the break, with a 1-1 score-line on the board. It was a score-line that reflected the manner in which the game panned out. However, Freiburg took the game by the scruff of the neck after the restart, firing in two goals to move 1-3 ahead.

Almost set for a huge win in the raffle, Eintracht Frankfurt sprang up a late resurgence, registering two quick-fire goals to bring the game level. Ultimately, there were no other goals of note as the scoreboard read 3-3 at full-time.

Bayer Leverkusen, on the other hand, were considered sure-fire favorites for their home game against Wolfsburg, following their 3-1 drubbing of Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend. However, Die Werkself somehow managed to jinx it, losing by a huge 1-4 margin, leaving question marks about their top-four charge.

Peter Bosz’s men will be looking to return to winning ways when they take on SC Freiburg this Friday to revive their Champions League qualification hopes. They will be required to guard against complacency to see that they raid this foe of the three points.

For this fixture, h2h encounters are likely to come into play and Bayer Leverkusen have the upper hand. From their last 16 clashes against Freiburg, they have landed the three points on 13 such occasions, conceding only one goal from the previous five encounters. Also, they have lost to these rivals just thrice over the past 16 years and have only lost twice at this venue since 2004.
