Union Berlin vs Freiburg Prediction & Betting Tips (8 November)

After experiencing what remains as its worst season since joining the elite in 2020, Union Berlin has turned the situation around perfectly. There is in fact no longer a question of fighting for survival for the capital club which is once again believing in a potential European qualification from next year. Because after 9 days, he is in 7th place in the ranking with 14 points on the clock. Winners of Dortmund 2-1 and Holstein Kiel 0-2, the Iron Men were then able to hold off Eintracht Frankfurt 1-1. But the Berliners are however coming off a bad week during which they were knocked out of the German Cup by Arminia Bielefeld 2-0 then beaten quite severely by Bayern Munich 3-0.

For their part, SC Friborg has roughly the same ambitions as his opponent of the day, namely to return to Europe next year after a year of deprivation. Ranking 6th in the standings with 16 points in their pocket, the Black Forest club is not off to a bad start in this regard but it doesn't really have the right to relax. Because after being able to defeat Werder Bremen 0-1 and Augsburg 3-1, they were beaten by Leipzig 3-1 and hung by Mainz 1-1. In the meantime, Freiburg was still able to beat Hamburg 2-1 in the German Cup.

Union Berlin still regrets a few absences for this 10th day. Indeed, the full-back Juranovic and the young goalkeeper Stein have still not recovered, having been injured for quite some time already. Affected recently, the former Olympique Lyonnais midfielder Lucas Tousart is expected for this meeting but he was no longer really a starter before joining the infirmary. On the offensive side, left back Rothe and center forward Hollerbach are the only two members of this squad to have scored more than once this year. At the forefront, we could find the former Rémois and Rennais Siebatcheu.

The long-term injured midfielder Kyereh still has to be patient in the infirmary. In addition, replacement playmaker Merlin Röhl and the hardly less used Gulde and Schmidt should not make the trip to the capital, also injured, and joined on the flank by midfielder Makengo. On the other hand, the Brazilians from Brigsau will be able to present themselves with the Austrian Adamu (2 goals, 1 assist), the Italian Grifo (3 goals, 5 assists) and with the Japanese Doan (4 goals, 1 assist) who, however, were unable to force the lock imposed by Mainz last week.
