Prediction: 0-2
Schalke 04
Schwarzwald-Stadion will host Tuesday’s football game between Freiburg and Schalke. Freiburg did well to beat Wolfsburg on the road at the weekend, with the team finally recording their first win of the season. Christian Streich’s men are eager to move away from the danger zone, but they face an uphill task in Tuesday’s football match against Schalke. Die Knappen, on the other hand, made a very slow start to the season, with the team suffering a loss in each of their four league fixtures. Schalke head into the midweek fixture with the lack of confidence, but they surely want this win more than Freiburg. We believe that the time has come for die Knappen to record their first win of the season and despite the fact that key player Leon Goretzka left the club in the summer transfer window, we are tempted to put our money on the visitors.

Highlighted Player (Amir Abrashi):
Despite being born in Bischofszell, Switzerland, Amir Abrashi decided to represent Albania on the international stage. The 172-cm-tall footballer was born on 27 March, 1990 and he made his Albania debut on 14 August, 2013 in a friendly against Armenia. It has to be noted, though, that he played for Swiss youth national teams (U17, U19, U21). Amir Abrashi represented Switzerland at the 2012 Summer Olympics as well. Speaking of his club career, the Albanian footballer made his senior debut for Winterthur II in a goalless draw with GC Biaschesi on 16 May, 2007. Abrashi made 58 league appearances for the first team as well and in 2011 he signed a permanent deal with fellow Swiss side Grasshopper. After scoring 5 goals in 100 appearances for the club, he joined Freiburg on 3 June, 2015. Abrashi signed a three-year contract with the Bundesliga outfit. He plays for Freiburg as a defensive midfielder, but he is capable of producing fine performances as a central midfielder as well.
