Why Winning Either Half Is Better Than Win Both Halves

3y ago

The all-conquering Bayern Munich appear to be going through a pretty rough patch this season, as they struggle to hit their former high marks. But for all their struggles, they remain top of the league standings, two points clear of RB Leipzig.

Meanwhile, Freiburg are exceeding pre-season expectations, and confounding their critics. With their players ticking so well on-the-pitch, this side have found goals very easy to come by. Set to face off the reigning champions this weekend, count on Streich’s men to give Bayern a run for their money.

Bayern Munich vs Freiburg Team News

Dominating the whole of Europe last season, Bayern Munich made a major statement, crowning themselves as the ‘Kings of the Continent”. On their way to lifting the Champions League trophy, they took a couple of heavyweights to the cleaners.

Also, they secured the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal titles to clinch a massive treble. Now, all of those are in the past, and a new season is already well underway. Bayern are looking to replicate the successes of the previous campaign to challenge on all fronts once again.

However, they were dealt a huge blow on the last matchday as minnows Holstein Kiel sent them crashing from the DFB-Pokal as early as in the second-round. After playing out a 2-2 draw in regular time, the Bavarians were knocked out of the competition via penalty shootouts.

With that defeat, Hansi-Flick’s charges can no longer have themselves a second successive treble-winning campaign. Bayern must now switch focus to the Bundesliga, where they are only two points clear at the summit.

Given a hiding by Monchengladbach in their previous league game, Bayern lost 3-2. It goes without saying that they will be itching to return to winning ways here, but will have their work cut-out against this tricky Freiburg side.

Even without big names on their roster, Freiburg are still running the show in the Bundesliga – scoring a flurry of goals. You begin to wonder where these strikes even come from as Breisgau-Brazilians have never been known to be prolific goal-scorers.

In tip-top form against Koln, Freiburg fired five unanswered goals past the opposition to record an emphatic win. Such a joy to behold on the pitch, it appeared Streich’s men were having a training drill. A more difficult game on the horizon, these ones will fancy their chances of causing an upset here.

Injured or Suspended Players

Bayern Munich vs Freiburg Predictions

On paper, Bayern Munich are overwhelming favorites. However, it is worth noting that the Bavarians are winless in their last two games across all competitions. Surely, confidence levels will be pretty low in their camp at the moment.

It is easy to think Freiburg would be the victims of a Bayern backlash in this contest but Breisgau-Brazilians are proving to be a strong side this season. Also, they are enjoying a good streak in front of goal.

While we expect them to cause Bayern a few problems, they are likely to go down in the end. Count on the Bavarians to come up trumps with no less than three goals between both sides come full-time.
