Freiburg vs Stuttgart Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga

Prediction published on 03/02/2024, 00:31  by Kennedy Kechula in Bundesliga Predictions

Freiburg will host Stuttgart seeking to get back to winning ways in the German Bundesliga. After 19 rounds of play, Stuttgart are third and sit nine points clear of seventh-placed Freiburg. Freiburg have amassed 28 points thanks to eight wins and four draws. A ninth win could see them enter the European places as they are just three points off sixth place. Christian Streich’s men have been wobbly in recent weeks and have managed just one win in four games. This was a 3-2 success over Hoffenheim in round 18. Last time out they were humbled 3-1 away to Bremen. February will be a tough month for the Breisgau-Brasilianer who battle Dortmund after Stuttgart's visit. Also, there is a Europa League knockout two-legged tie coming up.

Stuttgart hammered Freiburg 5-0 in the reverse match back in September. That win ended a run of five successive defeats in this fixture and they will be eager to start their own streak. Serhou Guirassy scored twice in the aforementioned game and is the team’s leading scorer with 17 league goals. He however will continue to be absent as he is away on national duty at the Africa Cup of Nations. Silas Mvumpa is another forward who is away at the AFCON. These absentees have hampered Stuttgart who have won just two of their last six games. But they did return to winning ways in emphatic fashion last time out after successive defeats. They scored five goals for the third time this season and won 5-2 at home against Leipzig. The win allowed them to maintain their place in the top three for at least another round. Stuttgart have accumulated 37 points and sit just a point above fourth-placed Dortmund.
