SC Freiburg – 1. FC Union Berlin

The first deciding game of our preview is on Saturday at 15:30 in Breisgau. There the 4th SC Freiburg meets the 7th Union Berlin.

The Freiburgers are trying to lead a highly successful season into the Champions League. The decision is in your own hands and is in 4th place with 55 points. Three points ahead of Leverkusen is within reach, but other clubs are also coming in from behind. So the opponent from Berlin is with only 4 points less in 7th place. The shape is currently more than promising. The last 4 games were not lost and there was a draw. Last week they scored a furious treble in the 4-3 win at Hoffenheim. Since the 28th matchday they are unbeaten and lost a total of only 3 games at home with 31 own goals: a strong record. Just like the first leg (0-0), the historical comparison is also very balanced (4-3-4). Keitel is missing. Too bad and whitehead for the game against Union.

The goal for the Unioners is to participate again in a European cup competition. If you were in the Europa Conference League last season, this season you can even jump into the Champions League. With a deficit of 4 points, however, a victory against the Breisgauer is mandatory. The Europa League places are only 1 point away. In addition, the Conference League seems to be secured with a 5-point lead on 8th place (Hoffenheim). The last strong form was clouded by a 1:1 at the bottom of the table from Fürth. Previously, there were 4 wins in Follow one of the league, including against Leipzig. The offense remains the problem of the team, only 43 goals were scored. No one in the top 10 has fewer goals. On the other hand, you are with 41 goals conceded, which is the 4th best value in the league. However, 26 of 41 goals conceded were conceded abroad. Heintz, Knoche and Baumgartl are missing injured or ill, which threatens a bottleneck in the defense.

Due to the strong home record, the 1.95 odds for a Freiburg victory are very attractive. The bet “both teams meet” could also be exciting despite the offensive weakness of the guests. Freiburg conceded 6 goals in the last 2 games. There is a 1.70 odds for this.

Bayern Munich – VfB Stuttgart

A south duel will take place on Sunday at 17:30 in the Allianz Arena. VfB Stuttgart is a guest at FC Bayern Munich.

Bayern are already champions and can spare forces in the remaining games. In addition, a goal record could be broken. Currently they stand at 93 goals, 101 are league record. Last week, however, they deserved to lose 3-1 in Mainz. In the first round they won high with 5:0. The last five direct duels were won with a goal difference of 19:2. Especially at home you are a force and have a goal difference of 46:13. Only Sarr is missing for the game, but Nagelsmann will probably rotate through and not let the A-Elf play.

On the other side of the pitch and the table is VfB Stuttgart. 29 points are enough for 16th place, two points over Bielefeld. In the event of a defeat, they could also no longer get over the relegation place, as Hertha has 4 points more. A surprise victory would certainly do well. But for this to happen, the away record must be improved. In the season there was only one victory in the distance. After all, they only lost once in the last five games – but they didn’t win either. To make matters worse, numerous players are missing, with: Mola, Ahamada, Nartey, Sankoh, Silas and Stenzel.

For a presumed victory of the hosts there is a odds of 1.25 (Stuttgart 10.00). If you want to take a little more risk, you can make the bet for “both teams meet” with a 1.65 odds, as Stuttgart has to play offensively and FC Bayern Defensive is often vulnerable this season.
