Dortmund vs Freiburg Prediction & Betting Tips (9 February)

Unlike last year when it fought until the end in the title race, Borussia Dortmund was not able to support the best teams in this championship who will compete for the Meisterschale in the months to come. On the contrary, BVB must fight with all their might to maintain their place in the top 4 and thus offer themselves a new ticket to the Champions League. Currently 4th in the ranking, Edin Terzic's men are only one point ahead of 5th, Leipzig. Authors of good things after the winter break, the residents of Signal Iduna Park won their first 3 matches in 2024 against Darmstadt 0-3, Cologne 0-4 and Bochum 3-1 before conceding a draw against Heidenheim 0-0 last weekend.Fribourg, for its part, has asserted itself, for several years, as a serious candidate for European places.

This 2023-2024 season is not lacking for the Black Forest club which is in 7th position in the ranking with 3 units behind the top 6. However, Christian Streich's men are not in top form currently . If they had negotiated their return to competition rather well after the winter break with a draw against Union Berlin 0-0 and a victory against Hoffenheim 3-2, the Brazilians from Brigsau were then beaten by Werder Bremen 3-1 and Stuttgart 1-3 last weekend.

For the BVB, the same regular absentees are missing at the moment. These are the midfielder Nmecha, the young Duranville and the full-back Ryerson who are still in the infirmary where the ghost Sancho has joined them. The replacement striker Haller is still playing in the CAN with Ivory Coast. Edin Terzic can, however, count on the excellent Brandt (6 goals), the Dutchman Malen (7 goals) and the center forward Füllkrug who is the top scorer of this team with 9 goals in the league.

However, none of them managed to force the decision last weekend against Heidenheim. Not really marking his time, Belgian full-back Meunier left the club this week.
