Our prediction for this Europa League match:
There will be fireworks when Qarabag and Freiburg face each other at Tofiq Bahramov Stadium in the last group match. Qarabag aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Nantes, and a win over Freiburg will see them book their spot in the Europa League last 32. Filip Ozobic has joined the likes of Abbas Huseynov and Badavi Huseynov in the recovery room. Christian Streich’s troops, on the other hand, have already clinched to position in Group G.
Since the Bundesliga outfit head into the match with the lack of motivation, home win should definitely be considered. All Ezekwem, Gulde, Sallai, and Schmid should miss out through injuries for the visiting team, while the likes of Woo-Yeong, Petersen, and Weisshaupt are pushing for a start. Earlier in the process Freiburg defeated Qarabag 2-1, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
