Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Arminia Bielefeld will be looking to escape the relegation zone when they take on Freiburg at Schuco Arena on Matchday 28. Arminia Bielefeld showed character in their last league match, with the team coming from behind to share the spoils with Mainz, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to secure the Bundesliga survival. Midfielder Amos Pieper returns from suspension, while Sven Schipplock is out of contention through injury.
Freiburg, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating Augsburg at home, while losing to both Mainz and Borussia M’gladbach on the road. Christian Streich’s men are stuck in the middle of the standings, and seeing that the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on Frank Kramer’s troops. Nicolas Hofler returns to Freiburg’s starting line-up after serving his ban in the defeat to die Fohlen.
