Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Freiburg will look to climb to the Champions League berth when they take on relegation strugglers Greuther Furth on Matchday 27. Freiburg aim to put an icing on the cake on a very successful season, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the rock-bottom side. A man to watch in the away side will be Vincenzo Grifo, who scored a brace at the weekend, while all Lienhart, Eggestein, and Jeong are major doubts following their recent positive tests for COVID-19.
The hosts, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom with only 14 points in their pocket. Since Greuther Furth failed to impress in a 6-1 loss to Leipzig, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting side. All Dudziak, Jung, Funk, and Kehr are injured for the home team.
Highlighted Player (Nils Petersen):
Son to a football coach, Andreas, the Freiburg striker Nils Petersen is a physical forward best known for his clinical finishing. A former Bayern Munich striker never got a chance to prove his worth with Bundesliga giants and had to take a long road to prominence which included loan spells at Werder Bremen and Freiburg, before penning a permanent deal with Die Breisaguer in 2015.
Petersen’s impressive exploits during the 2017/18 season helped him get into Germany’s provisional FIFA World Cup 2018 squad although his father Andreas would argue it was his personal influence that helped Joachim Loew write his son’s name in the 23-man list. Namely, Andres Piteresen spotted the Germany manager on a beach in January and decided to ask him about his son’s chances of making it into Germany World Cup squad.
Piteresen was rewarded with his senior Germany cap in an Austria friendly but unfortunately for his father missed out on the final squad for the tournament in Russia.
Highlighted Team (Freiburg):
